Personality disorder not otherwise specified is a subclinical diagnostic classification for some DSM-IV Axis II personality disorders not listed in DSM-IV.
The DSM-5 does not have a direct equivalent to PD-NOS. However, the DSM-5 other specified personality disorder and unspecified personality disorder are substantially comparable to PD-NOS. Additionally, Personality disorder-trait specified remains under consideration for future revisions and is presented as an alternative, more generic approach to personality disorders in the form of "general criteria for personality disorder" which primarily assesses "impairments in personality functioning".
