Other Personality Disorders

This post is about personality disorders that used to exist in the DSM or ICD but don’t anymore. You cannot be diagnosed with these disorders, as they’re not in any diagnostic manual; you would be diagnosed with Other Specified Personality Disorder (or the ICD-11 equivalent) instead.

Passive-Aggressive / Negativistic (PA/NegPD)

A pervasive pattern of negativistic attitudes and passive resistance to demands for adequate performance, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts.

Masochistic / Self-Defeating (Ma/SDPD)

A pervasive pattern of self-defeating behavior, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts. The person may often avoid or undermine pleasurable experiences, be drawn to situations or relationships in which he or she will suffer, and prevent others from helping him or her.

Sadistic (SaPD)

A pervasive pattern of cruel, demeaning, and aggressive behavior, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts.

Depressive / Melancholic (De/MePD)

A pervasive pattern of depressive cognitions and behaviors, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts.

Other Personality Disorders

Turbulent

Turbulent PD has never existed in any DSM. It’s part of Millon’s theorised personality disorder taxonomy, but doesn’t appear in any other literature.

It seems to be an alternate way of categorising and defining hypomania & cyclothymic disorder, and is similar to ADHD, NPD & HPD.

Millon classes it on a spectrum from ebullient personality type -> exuberant personality style -> turbulent personality disorder.

Haltlose

Theorised in German, Russian, and French psychiatry.

Haltlose translates to “unstable” (literally, “without footing”) and refers to a “drifting, aimless and irresponsible lifestyle: a translation might be ‘lacking a hold' on life or onto the self)”.

“Those with haltlose personality disorder have features of frontal lobe syndrome, sociopathic and histrionic personality traits”.

Someone with haltlose PD “lacks concentration and persistence”, and “lives in the present only”. They are “easily persuaded, and [are] often led astray”.

Haltlose PD is similar to AsPD as there is “an inability to learn from experience, and no sincere sense of remorse”. They are often described as ‘lovable rouges’.

(Cullivan, R, ‘‘Haltlose’ type personality disorder (ICD-10 F60.8)’, Psychiatric Bulletin, 1998, pp. 58-59).

Immature

Immature PD was mentioned in the DSM-III as a specifier for Other Specified PD, but removed in later editions.

It seems to be a combination of borderline, histrionic, narcissistic, antisocial, dependent, schizoid and avoidant PDs.

Almeida et al. suggest the following criteria for Immature PD: irresponsibility; impulsivity; unreliability; easily swayed; mood swings; expect overindulgence from others; dependency on others; ability for remorse or regret but it’s “light and fleeting”; inability to manage assets; inability to follow plans; quick to lie; unable to delay gratification; quick to frustration; devaluation of others; risk-taking behaviour; unstable relationships and behaviour; feels both entitled and worthless; attention seeking; recklessness; shyness; ungrateful; over-familiar with others; unable to plan for the future; substance use.

They also suggest 3 subtypes of Immature PD: the dramatic and emotional subtype, the shy subtype, and the mixed subtype.

(Almeida et al., 'Immature Personality Disorder: Contribution to the Definition of this Personality', Clinical Neuroscience & Neurological Research, 2019, pp. 1-16).

Eccentric and Psychoneurotic

These two personality disorders existed only as ‘other specified’ PDs in the ICD-10, where no definition is given.

Depressive / Melancholic Personality Disorder (De/MePD)

Note: You cannot be diagnosed with this disorder, as it's not in any diagnostic manual; you would be diagnosed with Other Specified Personality Disorder instead.

Criteria from the DSM-IV-TR (2000):

A pervasive pattern of depressive cognitions and behaviors beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts, as indicated by five (or more) of the following:

usual mood is dominated by dejection, gloominess, cheerlessness, joylessness, unhappiness

self-concept centers around beliefs of inadequacy, worthlessness, and low self-esteem

is critical, blaming, and derogatory toward self

is brooding and given to worry

is negativistic, critical, and judgmental toward others

is pessimistic

is prone to feeling guilty or remorseful

Millon's subtypes:

(Millon, ed.).

About De/MePD

De/MePD is similar to avoidant, schizoid, masochistic / self-defeating, negativistic / passive-aggressive and borderline PDs. It's part of what Millon & Bloom term the "Reserved Personality Patterns", along with AvPD & SzPD.

Differential diagnoses include anxiety disorders, mood disorders, and somatic disorders.

The most common PD comorbidities with De/MePD are AvPD (19.53%), AsPD (14.06%), & Negativistic / Passive-Aggressive PD (13.02%). The least common was HPD (1.82%). Less than 6 percent (5.34%) had only ("pure") De/MePD [much higher than people with pure Ne/PAPD or SaPD] (Millon & Bloom).

Millon defines it on a spectrum from pessimistic -> depressive (melancholic) (Millon Personality Group); or alternatively from dejected [personality type] -> forlorn [style] -> depressive [disorder] (Millon).

"The depressive and masochistic are so similar that some authors view them as a single constellation" (Millon, ed.).

In the DSM-IV-TR it was described as being “characterized by a pervasive pattern of depressive cognitions and behaviors, low self-esteem, brooding, and pessimism." (Coolidge & Segal).

"Always in a dejected and gloomy mood, they see themselves as inadequate and worthless. They submerge themselves in criticism for even minor shortcomings and tend to blame themselves when things go wrong. A pervasive pessimism leads them to anticipate the worst - to expect that life will always go wrong and never improve. Their days are spent brooding and worrying, ignoring the good and dwelling on the bad. Saturated with guilt, they wish that life could be different, but instead of taking the initiative, they berate themselves for missed opportunities and feel powerless to change their destiny. Such individuals may indeed be depressed, but their depression emerges from a way of thinking, feeling, and perceiving - a depressive personality" (Millon, ed.).

De/MePD only ever appeared in the appendix of the DSM-IV & IV-TR, and it was dropped because it was "controversial whether the distinction between depressive personality disorder and Dysthymic [Persistent] Disorder [was] useful" (DSM-IV-TR).

However, "many dysthymics did not meet criteria for depressive personality. [...] In fact, the proportion of those with depressive personality disorder who had never met criteria for dysthymia was high", indicating that De/MePD is likely a separate disorder from persistent & major depressive disorders (Millon, ed.).

There are many great Star Wars action figures to collect. The original figure was created by Kenner, and it is still considered a classic and cult favorite today. You can also find some cult favorites such as Thrawn. You can also find a great collection of Luke Skywalker figures, and there is a collection of Sandtroopers that are a must-have. But which ones are the best? Kenner created the first Star Wars action figure During the late twentieth century, Kenner launched a large line of action figures based on the films of George Lucas. The line included Han Solo, C-3PO, and Obi-Wan Kenobi. The brand also released a limited edition playset called the Star Wars Cantina, which included Jawa, Stormtrooper Commander, and a Darth Vader action figure. Thrawn is a cult favorite The cult favorite Star Wars action figure Thrawn is a highly unique character in the lore of the original films. Thrawn is one of the few non-human imperial officers who was promoted purely on merit. Although he had his shortcomings, Thrawn was an inquisitive and realistic character who understood his place in history. Though he may have been a droid, he had the intelligence and curiosity to serve his people. Sandtrooper is a must-have The Sandtrooper is one of the most popular figures from the original Star Wars trilogy and a must-have for any fan of the movie franchise. This highly detailed action figure features real movie phrases and comes with a blaster. The figure also comes with a Child. And when it comes to Star Wars toys, the Din Djarin figure is as precious as the beskar himself! Luke Skywalker is a must-have Fans of the original Star Wars films will love the new Hot Toys figure of the young Jedi. This 3.75-inch figure features the character's Rebel-issue outfit, complete with a cap and hood to protect the ears. Also included is a tan padded vest, hook for Luke's lightsaber, and holster for his Merr-Sonn Model 57 blaster, which looks similar to Han Solo's DL-44 pistol. And the figure also comes with a battle-damaged Dark Trooper, making him an indispensable addition to any Star Wars collection. Sandtrooper has a metamorphosis The Sandtrooper is a special variant of the Stormtrooper that is used on desert terrains. They have similar armor as a standard Stormtrooper, but with advanced cooling systems to prevent overheating. The MEPD defines optional levels of costuming excellence, including Police Officer, SWAT, and Sandtrooper. The Sandtrooper's armor consists of a helmet faceplate, left shin armor, and abdomen armor. Among other things, he has an orange pauldron that represents his rank. Snaggletooth is a must-have Snaggletooth is one of the most iconic bounty hunters from the Star Wars franchise, a character who was originally known as Mos Eisley Cantina and was kept by Jabba the Hutt. This figure features a premium design, multiple points of articulation, and a unique style that draws inspiration from the film. The Star Wars: The Vintage Collection 3.75-inch-scale figure is made by Hasbro, a trademarked toy line.

Axle Load Data Analysis And Its Distribution

ABSTRACT

In this project we investigated how distribution of gross weight of the truck among different axle occur as axle load distribution help in pavement design methodologies. First we taken set of axles load data of 371 vehicles and do its analysis by finding frequency distribution of all type of axle which data we had. With help of percentage of load distribution and load spectrum rigid pavement is design according to IRC:58 and according to the actual load distribution among axle and we found that the critical thickness of pavement slab is more in case of actual load distribution.

INTRODUCTION

Traffic data is most critical input for pavement design and it is associated with highest uncertainty. Designing a pavement requires total traffic volume, magnitude of axle load, tire pressure and speed of vehicle. According to IRC: 37-2012 the flexible pavement design guideline for Indian highways demand only two traffic input that is average annual daily traffic (AADT) Data and axle load data.

The axle load of a wheeled vehicle is the total weight bearing on the roadway for all wheels connected to a given axle. Axle load is an important design consideration in the engineering of roadways and railways, as both are designed to tolerate a maximum weight-per-axle (axle load); exceeding the maximum rated axle load will cause damage to the roadway or rail tracks.

In recent years, India has been making strides towards developing a robust mechanistic - empirical pavement design procedure.  Mechanistic Empirical Pavement Design (MEPD) has been developed to use the axle load spectra to represent the vehicle loads in pavement design. These spectra represent the percentage of the total axle applications within each load interval for single, tandem, tridem, and quad axles.

Problem Statement

The commercial vehicles are those carrying gross weight more than 3 tonnes. In general, most of the pavement design methodologies neglect the weight carried by steering axle and considers the load carried by the rear axles only. Further, several assumptions are made with respect to multi-axle trucks in terms load distribution. Hence there is a need to understand the distribution of gross weight of the truck among different set of axles. This will help in giving due considerations for the axle distribution in pavement design methodologies.

Methodology

In order to investigate the axle load distribution, past axle load data from two different  states Uttar Pradesh and Karnataka from India is taken. Data consist of different types of axle such as single, tandem, tridem etc. The frequency distribution is done to see load distribution on different axles and to see how the load is distributed on each axle of tandem, tridem axle.  Then determine the distribution of loads within the tandem and tridem axle and also assess the effect of steering axle weight on the cumulative fatigue damage of concrete pavements.

Comparison between Axle Load Distribution of both State

Distribution of load in all axle- We find relative frequency of axle for different range of load. The size of bin is take 2 tones and frequency distribution table is found which is shown on figure and with help of that bar graph is plotted. We can see from graph that they follow same path maximum number of load occur at 3-5 tones.

Distribution for Single Rear Axle- We find relative frequency of axle for different range of load. The size of bin is take 2 tones and frequency distribution table is found which is shown on Table and with help of that bar graph is plotted. It can be from figure that the trend of variation of percentage axle load is similar in both the states. In other words, the maximum percentage of trucks carry load in the range of 3-5 tones and later this percentage decreases with load.

 Distribution of Tandem Axle- We find relative frequency of axle for different range of load. The size of bin is take 5 tones and frequency distribution table is found which is shown on Table and with help of that bar graph is plotted. It can be seen from Figure that in both the states, the axle load distribution is similar. Further, the first axle of tandem axle carries more load compared to the second axle.

Distribution of Tridem Axle- We find relative frequency of axle for different range of load. The size of bin is take 5 tones and frequency distribution table is found which is shown on Table and with help of that bar graph is plotted. The figure shows that the first axle of tandem axle carries slight lower load compared to second and third axle, which almost carries similar percent of loads. 

Cumulative Fatigue Damage Analysis

For different trial slab thickness cumulative fatigue damage is calculate as per IRC 58 and by analysis load distribution on different axle which is shown in the plot the graph to compare both methods. We found out that critical thickness of slab is 272 mm and 274.9 mm when the rigid pavement is design as IRC 58 and as considering actual load distribution.

Conclusion

Steering axles should be considered in pavement design as most of axle load value is greater than 3 tones in both set of data.

Load Percentage distribution of  2nd axle show peak at 40-50% and 20-30% as there are vehicle with different number of vehicle and the distribution is also occurring according to number of axle similarly for 3rd axle which show peak at 30-40% for data Set-1 (UP) and Load Percentage distribution of 2nd axle show peak at 50-55% and 25-30% as there are vehicle with different number of vehicle and the distribution is also occurring according to number of axle similarly for 3rd axle which show peak at 45-50% and 30-35% for data Set-2 (Karnataka).

The data indicates that the     presence of multi-axle trucks are lower compared to the two axle and three     axle trucks. The two axle or three axle trucks are more damaging compared     to multi-axle trucks.

We     found out that critical thickness of slab is 272 mm and 274.9 mm when the     rigid pavement is design as IRC 58 and as considering actual load     distribution of axle respectively.
