Abstract
CABALLERO GUZMAN, María del Carmen; RODRIGUEZ HERNANDEZ, Laura Teresa and FERNANDEZ MUNOZ, Juan José. Borderline personality disorder and intimate partner violence: a systematic review. Pap. Psicol. [online]. 2024, vol.45, n.1, pp.48-55. Epub Jan 29, 2024. ISSN 1886-1415. https://dx.doi.org/10.23923/pap.psicol.3032.
Borderline personality (BPD) features and intimate partner violence (IPV) have been seen associated, focusing the research specially into perpetrators. The achievement of this systematic review is to analyze this relation in both victims and perpetrators, using 17 scientific articles published between 2017 and 2021 from different data bases. Most studies were focused on perpetrators, in which both men and women were equally represented as perpetrators. Instead, studies about victims were focused on women. Throughout this review, different factors observed in people with BPD traits who are victims or perpetrators of IPV are mentioned, finding particularities in each profile. These findings allow increase knowledge about the relationship between BPD and IPV, promoting a greater understanding that impacts positively on clinical intervention in this population.
