Dr. Livesley's academic interests are in the classification, assessment, and etiology of personality disorders. He also has an interest in the general problem of classifying mental disorders. His research on personality disorder has focused on identifying some of the basic components of personality pathology and investigating the environmental and genetic factors that contribute to personalty problems. His clinical interests are in the treatment of personality disorder with particular emphasis on psychological interventions.
