Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine whether specific personality disorder features in adulthood were associated with specific types of childhood maltreatment. After controlling for demographic and other maltreatment variables, physical abuse was hypothesized to be associated with antisocial personality features, sexual abuse with borderline personality features, neglect with schizotypal features and emotional abuse with both obsessive compulsive and avoidant features. Methods: A community sample of 100 students from the New School University in New York, New York was assessed for the study. Personality functioning was assessed using the Personality Disorders Questionnaire. Childhood maltreatment was assessed using the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire, the Neglect Scale, and the Parent-Child Conflict Tactics Scale. Results: In terms of the a priori research questions posed in this study, there was only one positive finding, namely that retrospective reports of childhood physical abuse were significantly associated with an increased risk for antisocial personality disorder features in adulthood even after age, gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation, and reported childhood histories of sexual abuse, emotional abuse and neglect were controlled statistically. In addition, young age was also shown to be a significant predictor for three of the five personality types. Conclusions: While reported histories of childhood maltreatment were not as strongly related to personality dysfunction as has been found in other populations, the findings of this study support some relationship between childhood maltreatment and personality disorder. Hence, histories of maltreatment should not be disregarded for college populations. Furthermore, personality pathology in college students may be related to factors other than trauma histories, such as young age.
