Schizotypal personality disorder has been found to have deficits in visual perception, attention, and memory that resemble those found in schizophrenia. People with paranoid personality disorder may exhibit suspiciousness, but do not show the same cognitive impairments as those with schizophrenia. Schizoid personality disorder is characterized by social withdrawal and emotional detachment and does not typically have the same cognitive deficits as schizophrenia. Borderline personality disorder is linked to emotional dysregulation, impulsivity, and unstable relationships, but not specific cognitive deficits.
