Disruption of Epistemic Trust in Borderline Personality Disorder: A Possible Adaptation to Avoid Making Costly Mistakes.

Department of Clinical, Educational and Health Psychology, University College London, London, UK.
This paper applies error management theory (EMT) (Haselton and Buss 2000) to explore how disruptions in epistemic trust-trust in communicated information-can be understood as adaptive responses to early adversity in individuals with borderline personality disorder (BPD). I propose that epistemic mistrust (EM) and epistemic credulity (EC), characterized by inappropriate trust patterns, arise from the differential costs of trusting unreliable versus mistrusting reliable information. Although these biases may seem maladaptive, they function as evolutionary survival mechanisms in response to harsh environments.

Article Synopsis
- Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disorder that leads to inflammation, pain, and damage in joints, and this study investigates the effects of Jingfang Granule (JFG), a traditional Chinese medicine, as a treatment.
- The research involved creating a rat model of RA and administering either JFG or a standard drug, measuring outcomes like foot swelling and various inflammatory markers to evaluate the treatment's efficacy.
- Results showed that JFG significantly reduced RA symptoms and levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines by targeting specific pathways in the body, suggesting it may be an effective therapeutic option for RA.

This paper highlights the limitations of narrative logic in mental health care, and in particular of "narrative vigilance"-the tendency to watch over experience via narrativisation, and to tether the concrete particulars of experience to the hypothetical structure of a narrative signification. Narrative logic is grounded in hypotaxis-the syntactic structuring whereby a discourse is characterised by different levels of subordination using linking words that connect, especially in terms of temporal and explanatory consequentiality. I offer an alternative approach based on parataxis-the practice of placing phrases or parts of speech next to each other without subordinating conjunctions.
