Influence of breadcrumbing on antisocial personality disorder in adolescents

Abstract

Breadcrumbing is accounting as a new concept in the modern relationship paradigm. Breadcrumbing is a form of emotional abuse as it involves controlling the other person and manipulating them. Antisocial personality disorder is mainly characterized by irresponsible behavior or impulsive attitude. Breadcrumbing leads to lowering the self-esteem of individuals and thus influencing their relationships. As individuals with antisocial personality disorder get breadcrumbed in their relationships, they exhibit anger and struggle with trust issues. The present study aims to measure the influence of breadcrumbing on antisocial personality disorder in adolescents. The Sample comprises 60 adults (aged 18 – 25 years). In this study, the primary data is collected using two different tools consisting of the Breadcrumbing in Affective-Sexual Relationships (BREAD-ASR) Questionnaire and the Antisocial Personality Disorder Test. The collected data is coded, scored, and exported to SPSS for analysis. For statistical analysis Mean, Standard Deviation, and Correlation were done. Hence, it can be concluded that there is a significant relationship between breadcrumbs and antisocial personality disorder in adolescents.
