What is the relationship between personality disorders and neuroticism and agreeableness?
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: People with personality disorders—any PD—are usually high in neuroticism and low in agreeableness. They are more anxious, depressive, hostile, callous, grandiose, and manipulative than the average person. Only those with dependent PD—those who want to please their partners—score a little above average in agreeableness.
