Exploring Symptoms of Borderline Personality Disorder in People With Affective Disorders: A Network Analysis
This study demonstrates that, although the symptom networks of BPD were largely comparable across affective disorder subgroups, structural differences emerged between the clinical and control groups. Notably, "Feel empty" consistently appeared as the most central symptom across all groups. These findings highlight the relevance of targeting "Feel empty" as a key focus for clinical intervention in affective disorders.
