NPA Personality Theory Based on Mendelian Genetics Reference to Narcissistic, Obsessive-compulsive Personality and Schizophrenia A. M. Benis, Sc.D., M.D. Summary NPA Personality Theory The NPA theory of personality was developed by the author on the basis of concepts described in a psychoanalytic framework over fifty years ago by Karen Horney. The theory posits three major behavioral traits underlying personality: Narcissism (N), Perfectionism (P) and Aggression (A), leading to the formulation of discrete character types. Each trait is based on a major pleiotropic gene that follows the rules of Mendelian genetics. The mode of transmission of the traits was deduced from archetypal family pedigrees. The traits N and A were found to be high frequency recessive, with P being dominant. The theory has the power to explain aspects of personality that previously had seemed intractable to an analytical approach. In particular, it provides anyone the ability to analyze problems of interpersonal relations on the basis of readily identifiable personality types. Quite unexpectedly, it predicts a relationship between infertility (miscarriage and stillbirth) and the personality types of the parents. It also gives insight into the genetic predisposition to

77. An Equifinality Model Of Borderline Personality Disorder serve as a heuristic guide to clinical intervention, treatment, and research as well as to stimulate creative thinking about borderline personality disorders. http://www.aaets.org/arts/art20.htm

An Equifinality Model of Borderline Personality Disorder by Joseph Santoro, Ph.D., Michael Tisbe, M.D, Michael Katsarakes Supervised Lifestyles Behavioral Heath Systems Borderline personality disorder (BPD) affects as many as six million Americans. It accounts for about 25% of all psychiatric hospitalizations. As many as thirteen percent of males and seven percent of females commit suicide (Stone, 1990). Approximately, 69% of people with BPD are also substance abusers (Miller et al., 1993). The causes of BPD are not well understood. Therapist folklore often labels people with BPD as difficult and treatment-resistant patients. This article outlines a clinical model of BPD. The model is based upon the clinical practice of the authors and the research literature concerning the correlates of BPD. The model identifies the roles played by traumatic environmental conditioning, its effect on neurobiological processes, and biological vulnerabilities in the development of BPD. In this regard, the model postulates two factors which can lead, singly or in combination with equifinality, to BPD: early childhood Psychotraumatic Stress (PTS) exposure (Factor I) and Biologic Vulnerability (BV) (Factor II). Equifinality is a systems theory concept (Miller, 1978) which means "that a final state of any living system [borderline personality disorder] may be reached from different initial conditions [Factor I, Factor II or both] and in different ways [antecedent or consequent biological and family system dysfunction]."

According to this view, the avoidant pattern seems to range ín varying degrees along a symptomological continuum from mild to extreme. In mild cases, a person may be said to be normally shy, whereas extreme cases indicate personality disorder. APD vs. Generalized Social Phobia DSM Criteria The DSM-IV describes APD as: avoids occupational activities that involve significant interpersonal contact because of fears of criticism, disapproval or rejection ís unwilling to get involved with people unless certain of being liked shows restraint within intimate relationships because of the fear of being shamed or ridiculed ís preoccupied with being criticized or rejected ín social situations ís inhibited ín new interpersonal situations because of feelings of inadequacy views self as socially inept, personally unappealing or inferior to others ís unusually reluctant to take personal risks or to engage ín any new activities because they may prove embarrassing How does APD manifest itself?
