Core criterion A
Pervasive pattern of preoccupation with orderliness, perfectionism, and mental/interpersonal control (at the expense of flexibility, openness, and efficiency), beginning by early adulthood; ≥4 of 8: preoccupation with details/rules/order; perfectionism interfering with task completion; excessively devoted to work; overconscientious about morality/ethics; unable to discard worthless objects; reluctant to delegate; miserly; rigidity/stubbornness
Consistent with [Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder] [specifier(s)]. Since early adulthood, there has been a pervasive pattern of preoccupation with orderliness; perfectionism; mental and interpersonal control; rigidity; inflexibility; excessive devotion to work and productivity; overconscientiousness; scrupulosity; reluctance to delegate; difficulty discarding worn or worthless items; miserly spending style; stubbornness, forming a pattern meeting the threshold for a stable and enduring obsessive-compulsive personality structure. The presentation is further characterised by restricted emotional expression, overcontrol, and persistent cognitive-behavioural rigidity that interferes with spontaneity and adaptive functioning. These symptoms have resulted in clinically significant impairment in interpersonal, occupational, or adaptive functioning.
