本研究通过考虑一些潜在的偏见的经验指标来检验人格障碍标准中可能存在的性别偏见：非临床样本的患病率差异；非专业人士对性别差异的理解；标准作为性别函数的内在一致性；以及标准的性别规范性。101名熟悉DSM-IV的参与者完成了问卷调查，评估每个标准的存在，以及标准对男性和女性的感知影响。结果表明，尽管个体标准存在一些差异，但标准的全球平均自评不存在性别差异。在一种性别中更为普遍的标准似乎被视为该性别的更大问题。这些标准似乎也在衡量异常行为，而不是性别无关的行为。有12项标准显示出与其他紊乱指标作为性别函数的差异趋同，其中大多数趋同对男性比对女性更好。
This study examined possible gender bias in personality disorder criteria by considering a number of potential empirical indicators of bias: prevalence differences in a nonclinical sample; the implications of gender differences as perceived by nonprofessionals; the internal consistency of criteria as a function of gender; and the gender-normativeness of criteria. One hundred one participants familiar with the DSM-IV completed questionnaires assessing the presence of each criterion, and the perceived implications of the criteria for men and women. Results showed that the global mean self-rating for the criteria did not differ as a function of gender although there were some differences for individual criteria. Criteria that were more prevalent in one gender appeared to be viewed as a greater problem for that gender. The criteria also appeared to be measuring abnormal rather than gender-non-native behaviors. Twelve criteria demonstrated differential convergence with other indicators of disorder as a function of gender, with most converging better for men than for women.
