Title: pwBPD Problem-Solving Strategies Post by: BigOof on January 24, 2022, 07:05:02 PM At the very end of the book "Conviction: The Untold Story of Putting Jodi Arias Behind Bars," the author notes pwBPD "are often adolescent-like, engaging in childish behavior with simplistic problem-solving strategies."
Does that ring true for you? In particular the simplistic problem-solving strategies? I haven't come across this in my research and would like to understand more. Please share any research/articles you may have on this. Title: Re: pwBPD Problem-Solving Strategies Post by: ThanksForPlaying on January 24, 2022, 10:17:03 PM Certainly "childish behavior". And I often think of pwBPD as relating to a 12-year-old (or whatever age they seem to be stuck on emotionally). They often problem-solve with the emotional goals of an adolescent.
But to your specific question, I've never heard "simplistic problem-solving strategies" - like they would have a harder time playing tic-tac-toe than nons? It's odd phrasing.

From https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4364472/ results: Excerpt BPD group reported less effective strategies in solving problems as opposed to the healthy group. Compared to the control group, participants with BPD provided empirical support for the use of problem-solving interventions with people suffering from BPD.

Please share any research/articles you may have on this. I would say their emotional responses are simplistic. But at least in my experience, BPDxw's problem-solving strategies were - if anything - overly complicated. Unnecessarily complicated & conflict seeking... often involving triangulation. I guess you could put "problem" in quotes, because it seemed very rarely to be an actual problem. |
