    Area of Science:

    • Psychiatry
    • Psychology
    • Sociology

    Background:

    • Personality disorders and psychiatric illnesses are significant public health concerns.
    • Understanding their impact on social functioning is crucial for community well-being.
    • Previous research has explored these relationships, but community-based prevalence and detailed social functioning correlations require further investigation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To determine the prevalence of personality disorders and psychiatric illness in urban and rural communities.
    • To examine the relationship between personality disorders and social functioning.
    • To identify factors influencing social functioning scores and their correlation with symptomatology.

    Main Methods:

    • A random sample of 200 individuals from urban and rural settings was recruited.

  • Structured interview schedules were employed for data collection.
  • Prevalence of personality disorder and psychiatric illness, alongside social functioning, were assessed.

    • Main Results:

    • Explosive personality disorder was identified as the most common abnormal personality type.
    • Individuals with personality disorders exhibited significantly poorer social functioning compared to those without.
    • No significant differences in social functioning were found across different diagnostic categories of abnormal personality, though some PSE categories showed variations.
    • Key variables and their interactions contributing to social functioning scores were identified.

    Conclusions:

    • Personality disorders, especially explosive types, are linked to substantial deficits in social functioning within the community.
    • While overall social functioning is impaired by personality disorders, specific diagnostic subtypes may not differentially impact this domain.
    • Further research into the complex interplay of variables affecting social functioning in affected populations is warranted.
