New paper out at the Journal of Psychopathology and Clinical Science!

We examined unconditional & event-related changes in personality functioning (Criterion A of the AMPD) and the Big Five across 4 metrics: rank-order stability, mean-level change, within-person variability, ipsative consistency

Our goal was to compare & better understand developmental links between pathological and normal-range personality, how these links varied depending on the occurrence of life events, and whether similarities vs differences emerged across distinct metrics

[Amanda J. Wright @aj_wright19]

Overall, we believe our study offers valuable insight into the conceptual (dis)similarity of personality traits and personality functioning, informs joint theoretical frameworks, and can advance treatment of personality disorders by identifying conditions in which changes in personality pathology may be expected or best captured

I apologise for the delayed response to your email, I have enormous personal flaws that I refuse to work on
