This month’s featured module is “Personality Disorders”. The module was developed by Dr. Ruth Levine, reviewed, and published to the Resource Bank in the Fall of 2015. The “Personality Disorders” module was designed for a third year psychiatry clerkship with teams of 4-6 students in a classroom of 20-24 medical students.

The module focuses on three learning goals. The learning goals are:

1. To be able to differentiate between the personality disorders.
2. To be able to name and apply the most appropriate strategies for managing patients who experience interpersonal difficulties.
3. To be able to describe the importance of establishing firm but compassionate limits when working with patients with personality disorders.

The “Personality Disorders” module includes a 13 question RAT and 2 Application Exercises.
