An essential part consists in the attention network test (ANT). The empirie part then partly follows Posner's research. Similar to his approach, it uses the ANT test and an IPDE semi-structured interview- the borderline module- to verify the potential relationship of borderline disorder and attention deficiency. Testing of attention also includes Stroop color test. The IPDE interview, which is aimed at diagnos ti es of borderline personality disorder, is supplemented by questionnaire methods monitoring particularly mood and the potential proband cognitive deficit. The research mentioned in this part of the paper monitors attention amongst fifteen individuals with borderline...
