Aim. This study alms at a preliminary analysis of the psychometric properties of the Italian version of the Borderline Personality Disorder Check List (BPDCL), a self-report instrument designed to assess the patients' burden of complaints about borderline personality disorder (BPD) symptoms in the previous month. Methods. Twenty-five BPD patients, 48 non-BPD patients and 39 nondinical volunteers were administered the SCID-II, the BPDCL, and SCL-90-R; a sobgroup of these patients also completed a questionnaire for the assessment of defensive array (REM-71) and the Borderline Syndrome Index. Internal consistency of the scale and correlation indexes of BPDCL total score with all criterion measures were assessed and BPDCL total score was compared among the 3 groups of subjects involved in the study. Results. Our results suggest that the Italian version of the BPDCL is a promising tool for the assessment of the patient's perception of severity of BPD symptoms. Conclusion. Further study is necessary, through sample enlargement, for the investigation of factor structure and sensibility to change in psychotherapy.

Agreement between DSM-IV and DSM-5 criteria for alcohol use disorder among outpatients suffering from depressive and anxiety disorders

American Journal on Addictions (2016)

Since significant differences have been reported, we estimated agreement between DSM-5 and DSM-IV criteria for alcohol use disorder (AUD).We assessed 327 outpatients (mean age: 45.2 ± 13.4) with depressive or anxiety disorders.Absolute differences in prevalence rates between DSM-5 and DSM-IV AUD ranged from -1.1% (subjects with anxiety disorders) to +1.8% (tobacco smokers). The agreement was excellent (k = 0.88), also accounting for specific subgroups (relevant k coefficients >0.80).DSM-5 criteria did not inflate AUD rates.Our results have epidemiological significance since, unlike previous reports, we found diagnostic stability between new and old AUD criteria in this clinical population. (Am J Addict 2017;26:53-56).

Introduction Mental health problems seemed to have increased among university students during the COVID-19 pandemic. To deepen our understanding of the pandemic's effects in this population, we conducted qualitative research to investigate any perceived changes in students during the pandemic, differentiating the sample based on the presence or absence of current suicidal ideation (SI).
