PG - 59-67 LID - 10.1097/YCO.0000000000000765 [doi] AB - PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This article aims to present the current picture on conceptualization, diagnosis and care provision of personality disorders (PD) in modern Russia. These issues are highly relevant to Russian psychiatry, which has a rich historical tradition of analysing psychopathic constitution, personality types and dynamics. RECENT FINDINGS: This narrative review covers the main tendencies in the recent Russian academic literature devoted to PD. PD are most frequently investigated in the frames of forensic psychiatry, in which expert conclusions and assessment of the risk factors for socially dangerous behaviour are particularly important. Another area of research concerns comorbidity, since PD often affect other health conditions or are co-occurrent with other mental or behavioural problems. Specialists have also focused on the challenges of therapy in PD. SUMMARY: Reviewed manuscripts show a pathogenic and pathoplastic role of personality factors in manifestation of other mental, behavioural or somatic disorders. Analysis of pathocharacterological profile and self-regulation processes is a major component in assessing and diagnosing PD. The principal perspectives in this particular area focus on evidence-based research of mechanisms of personality pathology and validation of targeted personalized combined therapeutic approaches.
