Abstract

The article focuses on a study investigating the family dynamics associated with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) using a genogram to compare perceptions between patients and their family members. The research involved 12 participants, revealing discrepancies in their views on emotional relationships and risk behaviors, particularly in categories labeled "Distant/Inferior" and "Physical Abuse." The study highlights the potential of the genogram as a tool for understanding family relationships and improving therapeutic interventions for BPD. It is noted that the findings are based on a preprint and have not undergone peer review. [Extracted from the article]
