Abstract
Personality refers to an individual’s characteristic patterns of thought, feeling, behavior, motivation, defense, interpersonal functioning, and ways of experiencing self and others. Knowledge accrued over generations of clinical experience has given rise to a taxonomy of personality styles or syndromes, and empirical research has confirmed the major syndromes and their features. Each personality syndrome is introduced and discussed. Diagnostic prototypes, which are succinct description of personality syndromes in their “ideal” or pure form, are provided to facilitate day-to-day clinical diagnosis. The personality constructs provide the broad strokes of clinical case formulations that address the psychological difficulties underlying many presenting complaints and diagnoses. Several personality syndromes are discussed as psychological pathways to depression.
