• A. Avoidant personality disorder
• B. Obsessive-compulsive personality disorder
• C. Dependent personality disorder
• D. Narcissistic personality disorder

Hint:

OCPD is not the same as OCD — OCPD affects personality traits, while OCD involves specific obsessions and compulsions.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (OCPD) is characterized by a persistent focus on rules, order, and control. People with OCPD often exhibit extreme perfectionism that hinders task completion. They excessively concentrate on details, organization, and schedules. This distinguishes OCPD from other personality disorders such as avoidant, dependent, or narcissistic. Avoidant personality disorder involves social avoidance and feelings of inadequacy. Dependent personality disorder is defined by reliance on others for decision-making. Narcissistic personality disorder focuses on self-importance and a need for admiration. Consequently, the accurate identification is Obsessive-compulsive personality disorder.
