Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a commonly occurring, severe, and costly condition that interferes greatly with quality of life. Considerable comorbidity with other disorders and existing multicomponent treatments with largely untested putative mechanisms of action represent obstacles for effective dissemination of BPD treatment; in light of this gap, the purpose of the present study is to isolate the effects of individual treatment components on putative mechanisms implicated in both BPD. This study will answer important theoretical questions about the mechanism of treatment change, and might lead to more efficacious, cost-effective, and easily disseminable treatment strategies for BPD, a severe and understudied disorder.
