The development of the dimensional models of personality disorders in DSM-5 and ICD-11 was a milestone for trait-theoretic research on personality. Trait theory is developed based on behavioral personality concepts, such as “cautious,” and “humorous,” which can characterize both behavior and person. For a behavioral personality concept to characterize a person’s personality, their behavior must be consistent with regard to that concept. Since the 1960s, however, Walter Mischel insisted that human behavior generally lacks cross-situational consistency, emerging instead from the interplay between personal factors and situational contexts. According to this “interactionism” of personality, it would be difficult to characterize healthy personality in terms of behavioral personality concepts. Conversely, the diagnosis of personality disorders requires the existence of maladaptive behavior across diverse situations, which itself is a sign of personality pathology. This chapter discusses some caveats in adopting a dimensional model of personality disorders in the light of Mischel’s arguments, as his view of personality is in sharp contrast to the view of personality behind the dimensional models, and Mischel’s perspective is vital when working clinically with individuals with personality disorders. First, one should be cautious about over-diagnosing personality disorders, given the propensity to overestimate the cross-situational consistency of others’ behaviors. Second, because personality disorders are characterized by consistent problematic behavior, facet-level rather than domain-level characterization of personality is most clinically relevant from a third-person perspective. Third, personality trait domains do not illuminate the causes of problematic behavior in each individual, which is necessary for treating persons with personality disorders.
