    • Abstract:
      La codependencia (COD) es un patrón de vinculación interpersonal disfuncional caracterizado por la atención excesiva en las necesidades y conductas del otro, aun cuando ello implique un descuido hacia sí mismo. Muchas veces se lo confunde con la dependencia emocional (DE) y con el trastorno de personalidad dependiente (TPD). Con el objetivo de contribuir al esclarecimiento del debate respecto de si la COD constituye o no un fenómeno independiente en este estudio se evalúa la relación entre dichos constructos. Para ello se aplicó la Escala Argentina de Codependencia, el Cuestionario de Dependencia Emocional y la subescala dependiente del Inventario Clínico Multiaxial de Millon. Se recolectaron datos de una muestra propositiva de 261 participantes. La COD se relacionó con más fuerza con la DE que con el TPD. Si bien los resultados indicarían cierta superposición entre los fenómenos estudiados, este solapamiento no es tan elevado como para sugerir que la COD sea equivalente a la DE o al TPD.

    • Abstract:
      Codependency (COD) is a pattern of dysfunctional interpersonal bonding characterized by excessive attention to others´ needs and behaviors, neglecting oneself. It is often confused with emotional dependency (ED) and dependent personality disorder (DPD). In order to contribute to the debate regarding COD as an independent phenomenon, this study evaluates the relationship between these constructs. For this purpose, the Argentine Codependence Scale, the Emotional Dependence Questionnaire and the dependent subscale of the Millon Multiaxial Clinical Inventory were applied to a sample of 261 participants. COD was more strongly related to ED than to DPD. Although the results indicate some overlap between these concepts, this overlap does not seem to be so high as to suggest that COD is equivalent to ED or DPD. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
