Article Synopsis
- Major depressive disorder (MDD) and borderline personality disorder (BPD) frequently co-occur, with 20% of MDD patients meeting criteria for BPD, prompting a study on how BPD traits might affect the instability of depression symptoms over time.
- The study involved 207 adults with MDD who tracked their depression symptoms three times a day for 90 days, measuring both BPD severity and neuroticism through self-report assessments.
- Results showed that BPD severity did not significantly predict changes in depression symptoms, suggesting a complex relationship between these disorders and highlighting the need for further research on their association.

Participants were 182 Black university students who completed measures of SA, GA, depressive symptoms, racial microaggressions, and IR.
