目标.本研究探讨了边缘型人格障碍（BPD）患者的情绪识别，与心理健康的对照组相比。无法识别不同的情绪被认为是BPD中情感失调的重要组成部分，很少进行实证研究。方法.在这项研究中，30名女性边缘患者和28名健康对照参与者接受了24小时的手持PC，每小时提醒他们输入数据。结果与对照组相比，患者在情绪识别方面表现出明显的困难。此外，数据显示BPD患者识别情绪的困难和厌恶性内心紧张水平之间存在显着关系，但对照组则不然。结论.结果表明，无法识别不同的情绪是一个问题，边缘患者在现实生活中的情况下。因此，治疗方案应侧重于改善情绪识别和调节。
Objectives. This study investigates the identification of emotions in patients with borderline personality disorder (BPD), when compared with mentally healthy control subjects. The inability to identify different emotions is considered as an essential component of affect dysregulation in BPD that has rarely been empirically investigated. Methods. In this study, 30 female borderline patients and 28 healthy control participants received a handheld-PC for a 24-hour period that reminded them hourly to enter data. Results. When compared with the control group, patients showed pronounced difficulties in emotion identification. Moreover, the data revealed a significant relationship between difficulties in identifying emotions and levels of aversive inner tension for BPD patients, but not for control subjects. Conclusions. Results indicate that the inability to identify different emotions is a problem that characterizes borderline patients in real-life situations. Treatment programs should, therefore, focus on the improvement of emotion identification and regulation.
