Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

There is a great deal of overlap of the disorders. Some people are diagnosed with several personality disorders as a result. These classifications are nothing more than a convenient way for clinicians to remember the disorders and are not based on any scientific evidence.
To address the concerns, some have suggested introducing dimensions by rating clients on six broad personality trait domains. These are negative emotionality, introversion, antagonism, disinhibition, compulsivity, and schizotypy. Under each of these domains would be more specific trait facets; clinicians would rate clients on a four-point scale as to the extent that these traits are present therefore providing some indication of the dimensional quality of the difficulties.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
