Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The "dimensions/categories" debate is concerned with whether personality disorders should be viewed as extreme variants of normal personality or distinctly different disorders, and whether they should be grouped into several broad categories (dimensions) or into more specific subtypes (categories). Option A is too general, option B is specific to the preferred number of clusters, and option D is focused on the issue of distress, but not the overall debate itself.
