From a contextual thinking perspective, the focus shifts from “deviance” to strategy: many PD-traits are attempts to find a foothold with limited context integration. That explains withdrawal (schizoid), pattern-seeking (schizotypal), emotional dysregulation (borderline), transactional/egocentric reactions (antisocial, narcissistic), avoidance (avoidant), dependent organizing (dependent), and rigid controlling. The continuum touches upon very strong first-degree thinking: from rigidity via compulsion to psychotic experiences.
