Clinical Trial Summary

Linehan's biosocial model conceptualizes the factors at play in the development of emotional dysregulation (ED), that is, difficulty regulating one's emotions, in borderline personality disorder (BPD). The model explains ED as the result of the interaction between the person's biological emotional vulnerability and their exposure to early invalidating experiences from those around them. Recently, ED has been shown to be prevalent in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The objective of the study is to propose an adaptation of Linehan's model to the specificities of ASD to conceptualize the factors contributing to ED in the context of this disorder. To do this, the investigators will carry out a narrative literature review, as well as an illustrative case conceptualization based on the proposed model.
