This book explains how personality disorders can be understood from the perspective of the Five-Factor Model (FFM), the most heavily researched and empirically supported dimensional model of general personality structure. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Since the second edition of this authoritative text was published in 2002, the research base supporting the FFM has more than quadrupled. As a result, the vast majority of this volume is new. The chapters summarize the conceptual and empirical support for the FFM, including the dimensional description of specific personality disorders and the application of the model for assessment and treatment. Case studies are also provided.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Arthur Widiger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1433811669\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781433811661\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e American Psychological Association (APA)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/15\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 468\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.20h x 8.60w x 1.10d","brand":"Thomas Arthur Widiger","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43934935810303,"sku":"9781433811661","price":71.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_97847dda-4d19-4e2f-b451-19330f7e0d67.jpg?v=1681416907","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/personality-disorders-and-the-five-factor-thomas-arthur-widiger-9781433811661","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
