Abstract

Unstable interpersonal patterns and aggressive behavior are central characteristics of the borderline personality disorder. Behavioral problems of borderline personality disorders are often caused by negative interpersonal events and/or experiences such as abandonment. For this reason, it is crucial to examine aggressive behavior during such negative interpersonal events. Participants who participated in the experiment were divided into two groups, borderline personality trait group (n=35) and control group (n=34), according to the PAI-BOR score. They were randomly assigned situations emulating social acceptance or exclusion during a cyberball game. The Point Subtraction Aggression Aggregation Paradigm (PSAP) was used to measure reactive-overt aggression, and the scenario, developed by Lyle (2010), was used to measure reactive-relational aggression. According to this study, borderline personality trait groups generally expressed more aggression than control groups. In particular, when the borderline personality trait group experienced a strong sense of alienation, reactive-relational aggression markedly increased.
