Self-Defeating Personality and Memories of Parents' Child-Rearing Behaviour
A recent study of correlations of self-defeating personality and memories of parents' child-rearing behaviour has been replicated on a larger sample. Non-clinical volunteers (145 women and 114 men) were administered Schill's Self-defeating Personality Scale and a short version of the EMBU-Egna Minnen Beträffande Uppfostran (own memories of parental education) scale. Replicating previous findings, memories of rejecting or nonsupportive parents wer…
Patterns of Adaptation and Personality Disorders
Patterns of adaptation to conflict were explored with the Serial Color-Word Test, and personality disorders were assessed by means of the Coolidge Axis II Inventory in a group of 76 nonpsychotic women volunteers in the age range 18-50 yr. (M=29.1 yr., SD=8.3), who attended a psychiatric outpatients unit. Forward multiple regression analyses were performed to investigate whether patterns of adaptation were associated with personality disorders. 10…

Self-Defeating Personality and Memories of Parents' Child-Rearing Behaviour
A group of 132 nonclinical volunteers was given the Self-defeating Personality Scale and a short version of the Egna Minnen Beträffande Uppfostran (EMBU) scale to explore correlations of scores for adults' self-defeating traits with memories of parents' child-rearing behaviours. For men, the recall of two rejecting parents and, for women, the memory of a nonsupportive father were significantly correlated with scores of self-defeating traits. The …
Self-Report of Basic Symptoms among Psychotic and Nonpsychotic Subjects
Basic symptoms, as defined and described by the Bonn Scale, were assessed by means of a new self-report inventory, the Rome Basic Disorders Scale. On all the subscales, psychiatric outpatients (n = 105; most frequent diagnoses: Schizophrenia, Anxiety Disorders, and Mood Disorders) scored significantly higher (p < .001) than nonclinical controls (n = 105). Psychiatric patients with at least one diagnosis on the psychotic sets of Foulds' hierarchic…
Foulds' hierarchy
Foulds' inclusive non‐reflexive law of symptom formation has been hitherto confirmed only on psychiatric or non‐clinical persons. Given that respectively a yes‐bias and a high frequency of non‐classified patients may have inflated the rate of confirming protocols in these groups, a validation study was conducted with the Delusions‐Symptoms‐States Inventory (DSSI) on 188 psychiatric and 295 dermatological patients. Although nonclassified patients …
Personality Disorders and Psychiatric Symptoms in Psoriasis
Two groups of psoriatic outpatients (ns = 192 and 119) were given, respectively, the Million Clinical Multiaxial Inventory-II and Foulds' Delusions-Symptoms-States Inventory. They were compared with dental (n = 192) and with general surgical (n = 190) patients. The psoriatic group presented clearly higher mean scores and frequencies on most of the personality disorder scales. On Foulds' inventory, psoriatic patients showed higher frequencies of n…
Is alexithymia a non‐neurotic personality dimension
The basic hypothesis of the literature on alexithymia, i.e. that alexithymia has a higher prevalence in psychosomatic than in neurotic (and delusional) patients, was empirically tested by means of the well‐validated Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS). Surprisingly, neurotic and delusional patients ( N = 71) had significantly higher mean total scores on the TAS, compared with the psychosomatic group ( N = 150); the normal control sample ( N = 224) wa…
