研究背景:邊緣性性格障礙者主要在人際關係、自我形象、不穩定的情感表現、及衝動行為四大面向上出現的不適應，其中不穩定且緊張的人際關係為邊緣性性格障礙的穩定症狀，許多研究也指出他們在人際衝突下擁有許多不適切的表現。根據文獻回顧，可以發現邊緣性與依賴性性格障礙有很高的共病率，且依賴性性格障礙同樣存在不穩定的人際關係，但兩者在衝突下的知覺及解決策略仍不清楚，需要進一步探討。
此外過去有些個體雖未達臨床上性格障礙的診斷標準，但仍會有不適應的行為表現。過去研究也指出在探討共病的研究中會採四組比較 (兩組單純疾病組、共病組、控制組)的方式探討其中的差異，本研究也將採此研究方法探討個體伴隨邊緣性及依賴性性格障礙特徵者在人際衝突下的知覺及解決策略。

研究方法:(1) 受試者為南部大專院校學生，使用分層與隨機抽樣，共有3,241位學生完成問卷施測，本研究僅將完整填答問卷納入後續分析，共2,605份問卷進行後續分析；(2) 研究工具為個人資料表、邊緣性及依賴性性格障礙特徵問卷、衝突知覺與解決策略量表、神經質量表、衝動性量表、柯氏憂鬱量表；(3) 研究程序上採橫斷研究，為2003年11月起六週時間對所抽樣學生進行問卷調查，並以問卷填答結果將受試者分為以下四組：高邊緣組、高依賴組、雙高組與雙低組；(4) 統計分析利用SPSS視窗15.0版進行描述統計與ANOVA分析。

研究結果:結果顯示高邊緣組、高依賴組、及雙高組在面對衝突時，較傾向將衝突知覺為威脅性的。而在衝突解決策略上，高邊緣組、高依賴組、及雙高組在面對衝突時比起雙低組較傾向使用逃避策略；高邊緣性及雙高組在情緒過度表達策略上得分也顯著高於高依賴組及雙低組；在順從策略上，高依賴組及雙高組顯著高於雙低組，高邊緣組及高依賴組在順從策略上則無顯著差異；而在問題解決策略方面，僅雙低組得分顯著高於高依賴組。

結論及建議:本研究探討個體伴隨高邊緣性及高依賴性障礙特徵者在人際衝突下的知覺及解決策略，釐清兩者衝突知覺及解決策略的差異，未來可進一步應用於臨床上治療個案，改善其在衝突下的威脅性知覺，並減少負向的衝突解決策略使用，增加問題解決策略使用。

This study was designed to examine the perception and resolution styles toward conflicts among 222 college students with borderline personality disorder features only (B+ group), 341 with dependent personality disorder features only (D+ group), 259 comorbid with borderline and dependent disorders features (Comorbidity) and 1783 healthy controls (Control group). 2605 college students were recruited and self-reported measures were administered. Based on the cut-off scores on Borderline and Dependent Personality Features Questionnaire, the B+, D+, comorbidity and control groups were identified. The results showed that the B+, D+, and comorbidity groups more likely to perceive conflict as threatening and use avoidance style of conflict resolution than the control group. The B+ and comorbidity groups reported higher levels of fighting than the D+ group, while the D+ and comorbidity groups revealed increased levels of conflict volatility than did the control group.
