study of emotional dysregulation in complex post-traumatic stress disorder

Conditions: Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD); Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD); Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

Summary: this study aims to characterize emotional dysregulation in complex post-traumatic stress disorder (cptsd) and to determine the extent to which it can promote the distinction with borderline personality disorder (bpd) and post-traumatic stress disorder (ptsd). as emotional dysregulation is a dynamic process whose phenomenological manifestations are labile, associated with physiological modifications and modulated by cognitive processing, a multiple methodology associating measurements in a real-life ecological context with measurements performed in the hospital will be preferred. overall, this study proposes to capture, for the first time, the clinical manifestations associated with cptsd from the perspective of emotional dysregulation and its underlying processes
