Abstract:
Earlier clinical hypotheses regarding borderline personality disorder, based on projective psychological testing and intelligence tests, are examined. Recent findings of comparative deficits in this population in the domains of verbal and visual memory as well as visual perception are reviewed, together with clinical relevance. Efforts to examine the way individuals with this disorder process emotion-laden material are discussed, with suggestions for further research.
