Answer: Option (C) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Under psychopathology , dimensional models of personality disorders gestate personality disorders as quantitatively rather than qualitatively. These usually consist of extreme state of certain characteristics.

According to this model personality disorders are categorized in accordance with the characteristic that are expressed at a respective level . This also stands in regards with the traditional models of categorization, which are thoroughly based on the Boolean existence or lack of symptoms.
