Alice Has Been Ordered to Attend Counseling Because She Assaulted

Alice has been ordered to attend counseling because she assaulted one of her husband's female coworkers. At the first session, she appeared highly guarded and refused to answer many of the questions posed to her. Eventually the therapist determined that Alice believed her husband was having an affair with the woman she attacked. Her husband has denied the affair and he, along with several other people, has repeatedly told Alice that the coworker is happily involved in a long-term relationship with her female partner. In the end, Alice angrily stomped out of the therapy session because she became convinced that the therapist was also attracted to her husband and was "just looking for dirt on her." Alice may have _____ personality disorder.

A) schizotypal
B) schizoid
C) paranoid
