冲动被多次认为是 BPD 的一个关键因素。然而，其精确定义似乎有所不同，特别是在与侵略的重叠方面。冲动攻击这一术语通常也被视为理解 BPD 的核心，似乎是针对两者之间的界面，但其本身在文献中的使用不一致，有时指单一表型维度，有时则暗示不同特征的某种组合。本研究检查了 BPD 样本 (N = 92) 中冲动性、攻击性和冲动攻击性的多种测量之间的关系，以阐明该临床人群中这些测量结构之间的关系。结果显示，边缘性人格障碍患者的攻击性和冲动性测量之间几乎没有关系，冲动性攻击性测量仅与攻击性测量密切相关。讨论了目前结果对 BPD 未来研究和临床工作的影响。
Impulsivity has been repeatedly identified as a key construct in BPD; however, its precise definition seems to vary especially regarding the overlap with aggression. The term impulsive-aggression, also generally seen as central to an understanding of BPD, seems to address itself to the interface between the two, but has itself been used inconsistently in the literature, sometimes having reference to a unitary phenotypic dimension, and at other times suggesting some combination of distinct traits. This study examined the relationship between multiple measures of impulsivity, aggression, and impulsive-aggression in a BPD sample (N = 92) in order to clarify the relationship between these measured constructs in this clinical population. Results show little relationship between measures of aggression and impulsivity in BPD, with measures of impulsive-aggression correlating strongly with measures of aggression only. Implications of the present results for future research and clinical work with BPD are discussed.
