Character Styles

Johnson shows how basic life issues underlie the severe
pathology of personality disorder, the nagging symptoms of
neurosis, and the more functional coping and adaptation of
the character styles. Johnson's dimensional model captures
the complexity of the human personality, while allowing for
variability not seen in categorical systems such as DSM-IV.
His descriptive names of the character styles not only link
childhood experiences to later personality and psychopathology
but also put flesh and bones on psychiatric diagnosis.
