A nurse is collecting data from a client who has paranoid personality disorder. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?

A. Lack of feelings of remorse: This finding is more characteristic of antisocial personality disorder rather than paranoid personality disorder. Individuals with paranoid personality disorder may feel justified in their suspicions but do not typically lack remorse for their actions. B. Inflated sense of self: An inflated sense of self is associated with narcissistic personality disorder. Individuals with paranoid personality disorder may have self-doubt but often feel their beliefs and perceptions are valid. C. Requiring frequent reassurance from others: This behavior is more typical of dependent personality disorder. Individuals with paranoid personality disorder are generally distrustful of others and may not seek reassurance due to their suspicious nature. D. Suspiciousness of others: This is a key characteristic of paranoid personality disorder. Individuals with this disorder often exhibit a pervasive distrust and suspiciousness of others, interpreting their motives as malevolent. This finding is expected when assessing a client with paranoid personality disorder.
