Clinical Significance
Schizoid personality disorder is characterized by a pervasive pattern of detachment from social relationships and a restricted range of emotional expression. These patients appear cold, aloof, and uninterested in close relationships. This condition impacts healthcare by reducing patient engagement, limiting therapeutic alliances, and decreasing follow-up adherence.
