Note. Standardized effects reflect the stability influences over time. Estimates are based on 100 imputations. These effects reflect the stability of the individual differences in diagnosis over the various time spans as either direct (when at adjacent measurement occasions) or indirect (when separated by 1 or more measurement occasions) effects. Because all of these effects are all significant at p < .0001, there is reliable stability in these pathways even over the 10-year span of the study. STPD = schizotypal personality disorder; BPD = borderline personality disorder; AVPD = avoidant personality disorder; OCPD = obsessive-compulsive personality disorder.
