  1. Note: ato assess the presence of a structuring personality disorder, we administered the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-5 Personality Disorders (SCID-5 PD) [50] to patients aged 14 and over. If the patient obtained supra-threshold scores, we gave him/her a diagnosis of structuring personality disorder since according to DSM-5 it is not correct to diagnose a personality disorder under the age of 18
