Aetiological pathways to Borderline Personality Disorder symptoms in early adolescence: childhood dysregulated behaviour maladaptive parenting and bully victimisation

摘要

BackgroundDevelopmental theories for the aetiology of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) suggest that both individual features (e.g., childhood dysregulated behaviour) and negative environmental experiences (e.g., maladaptive parenting, peer victimisation) may lead to the development of BPD symptoms during adolescence. Few prospective studies have examined potential aetiological pathways involving these two factors.
