Comorbidity of axis I and axis II disorders

·1995·American Journal of Psychiatry

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: In light of continuing controversies concerning the DSM-III-R system for diagnosing personality disorders, their construct validity, and the assignment of disorders to a particular axis, the authors studied patterns of axis I-axis II comorbidity. METHOD: Semistructured interviews were used to assess axis I and axis II disorders in 200 inpatients and outpatients. Odds ratios were calculated to determine significant comorbidity between classes of current axis I disorders and axis II personality disorders diagnosed according to two methods and defined at two diagnostic thresholds. Distributions of personality disorder traits were also compared in patients with and without axis I disorders. RESULTS: Significantly elevated odds ratios were found for co-occurrence of current mood disorders with avoidant and dependent personality disorders; anxiety disorders with borderline, avoidant, and dependent personality disorders; psychotic disorders with schizotypal, borderline, and dependent personality disorders; psychoactive substance use disorders with borderline and histrionic personality disorders; and eating disorders with schizotypal, borderline, and avoidant personality disorders. These results held when conservative and liberal definitions of personality disorders were used. Non-specific axis I and axis II associations were confirmed for distributions of personality disorder traits. CONCLUSIONS: Significant associations occurred between most axis I classes of disorders and axis II disorders and traits in more than one cluster. All axis I classes of disorders except mood disorders co-occurred with borderline personality disorder; however, patients with mood disorders had elevated levels of borderline traits. When any personality disorder was present, there were significant odds that a mood, anxiety, psychotic, or eating disorder would also be present; psychoactive substance use disorders, in contrast, significantly co-occurred with borderline and histrionic personality disorders.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
