3.pliability, kindliness, honesty, indifference, silence, and cold emotional attitudes--this is confusing

I think it is wonderful if people who have this disorder are notably kind and honest. But the way it is written and lack of followup in article makes it unlikely or at best unclear that this is what is meant. Probably the passage was to say that kindness and honesty, or lack thereof, are among the traits psychiatrists try to measure in schizoid patients.-Richard L.

:No, it is exactly like it is in the text, at least acording to [http://books.google.pt/books?id=S5QL1yKHeBIC&printsec=frontcover&source=gbs_navlinks_s#v=onepage&q=&f=false "Disorders of the self..."] (pg. 5)--[[Special:Contributions/194.65.151.101|194.65.151.101]] ([[User talk:194.65.151.101|talk]]) 16:41, 14 January 2010 (UTC)

Redirect

For some reason, someone made this page redirect to Archive 1 of this talk page. I'm going to assume good faith in that whoever did it was just trying to archive the page and not be disruptive, but next time please look over WP:ARCHIVE before attempting to archive a talk page again. Thank you. -- Rue Ryuzaki  jam  18:58, 10 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Etiology

The real causes of SPD are largely unkown and speculative. It is realy necessary to have an empty section named "Etiology (causes)"?--194.65.151.101 (talk) 13:23, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It most certainly is. If you have a citation covering your statement "The real causes of SPD are largely unkown and speculative" then put that in. I may be able to dig up some material myself. Even speculative reasons may be worth mentioning as long as that is made clear--Penbat (talk) 13:29, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

kindliness, honesty--a bit unclear

From the present version of the article" "3.pliability, kindliness, honesty, indifference, silence, and cold emotional attitudes" I think it is wonderful if people who have this disorder are notably kind and honest. But the way it is written and lack of followup in article makes it unlikely or at best unclear that this is what is meant. Probably the passage was to say that kindness and honesty, or lack thereof, are among the traits psychiatrists try to measure in schizoid patients.-Richard L.

No, it is exactly like it is in the text, at least acording to "Disorders of the self..." (pg. 5)--194.65.151.101 (talk) 16:41, 14 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
