Personality disorders associated to Axis I disorders have become ever-present topics in current psychological research. A descriptive, comparative and transversal study was designed to compare the personality scales in a clinical sample of 67 patients with TCA and a control group by means of the MCMI-II and to analyze the existence of aggregation of styles of personality depending on the topography of the TCA. We did not find significant differences in the aggregation of styles of personality among clinical groups, though differences did appear with regard to the control group in the majority of the pathological scales. we discuss the scales in which no differences were found between both groups (dependent, histrionic, narcissist and compulsive) and the possibility that it should be due to the influence of certain widely accepted social values common to both samples.
