Abstract

Recent advances in research, clinical observations and treatment have contributed to several major changes in the conceptualization of personality disorders. Featured in an educational programme on personality disorders prepared by the World Psychiatric Association (WPA) Section on Personality Disorders and the International Society for the Study of Personality Disorders, this paper reviews new perspectives, signifi cant interfaces, and areas of ambiguity and controversy that presently infl uence the study and treatment of personality disorders. Included are, among other things, discussions of their heritability and aetiological origin, variability over time and between cultures, and change and remission. A curriculum suggesting different educational approaches to the programme, now available on the Internet, aims at promoting integrative learning and discussion among clinicians and educators in study groups or workshops. The programme can be downloaded from the WPA web site http://www.wpanet.org.
