Cognitive therapy for antisocial and borderline personality disorders: Single case study series

Abstract
Cognitive therapy for affective disorders has been recently adapted and developed for the treatment of personality disorders. In the present study, a specific and detailed cognitive therapy treatment manual for borderline and antisocial personality disorders was evaluated in a pilot study. The results of a single case series demonstrate that important clinical changes in dysfunctional behaviour and attitudes can be achieved with short-term cognitive therapy in patients with antisocial and borderline personality disorders, although these were not, on the whole, statistically significant.
