Abstract

Background: This article analyzes the current conceptualization of the personality construct, in until now prevalently understood in a psychopathological key, through categorical classification systems such as the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). Subsequently, is presented an alternative perspective to the predominant and monolithic one, such as that offered by the phenomenological approach: it identifies the constitutive elements of the personality, biological, relational and environmental/social, in order to identify the maladaptive functioning of each person.In view of a “stratified medicine” system, we support the idea that the need for therapeutic treatments is based on the integration of the current diagnostic-categorical classification systems with a holistic view of the individual is supported.

Methods:we present a brief examination of the current theoretical background of reference for the treatment of personality disorders.

Conclusions: This work aims to supports the phenomenological vision as a theoretical basis for a medium and long-term scientific study of personality, supported by the use of psychometric, biometricand neuroscience tools in the evaluation and treatment phases.
