TY - JOUR PY - 2006// TI - Moral nature of the DSM-IV Cluster B personality disorders JO - Journal of personality disorders A1 - Charland, Louis C. SP - 116 EP - 25; discussion 181 VL - 20 IS - 2 N2 - Moral considerations do not appear to play a large role in discussions of the DSM-IV personality disorders and debates about their empirical validity. Yet philosophical analysis reveals that the Cluster B personality disorders, in particular, may in fact be moral rather than clinical conditions. This finding has serious consequences for how they should be treated and by whom.
