Résumé :
This review summarizes the recent literature about personality disorders among substance abusers. First, it will be shown that personality disorders are highly prevalent comorbid conditions among addicted individuals. Second, it is argued that this comorbidity is likely to be accounted for by multiple complex etiological relationships. Finally, the clinical relevance of routine assessment of (maladaptive) personality traits in individuals admitting for substance abuse treatment will be discussed. (Author' s abstract)
