That matter becomes understanding about determinant threshold personality disorder still very limited, the effect of handling for people with threshold personality disorder becomes inappropriate. “Moreover, there is an assumption that  threshold personality disorder similar to other mental disorders, so many people with a threshold personality disorder will be diagnosed having other disorders.” Christin Wibhowo S.Psi., M.Si said, in Auditorium G-100 Faculty of Psychology UGM, Friday (1/3). Christin, Lecturer of Faculty of Psychology Katolik Soegijapranata University mentions childhood traumatic factor, attachment, proactive handling, and social support structurally become roles for emerging threshold personality. While research still continually developed because the subject was involved still in the limited environment or not yet compared to a different culture.

Because the views about threshold personality and researches that are committed all the time still refer to western culture, and not explain about the role of childhood traumatic yet, proactive handling, attachment, and social support to threshold personality. “Therefore, necessary is committed research about determinant threshold personality, especially in central Java, because based on noted from Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS) 2015, Central Java province becomes a province with suicidal case and the most divorced-marriage, and these behaviors include to criteria of threshold personality, “in her opinion, while in open examination of Doctoral Program Psychology UGM with the title dissertation “ Determinant Threshold Personality.” (Public Relation UGM/ Agung)
