Summary

This rejoinder responds to commentaries offered by Cain (this volume) and Arntz (this volume). The authors reiterate their view that incorporating mechanisms into research will open new pathways for understanding the nature of anxious fearful personality pathology and for improving diagnosis. They agree with and value the interpersonal theory for better understanding personality disorders, and for guiding treatment. They further argue that particular attention be paid to grain size in the study and conceptualization of anxious fearful personality pathology.
