Corrigendum to “Individual Risk Factors for Physician Boundary Violations: the Role of Attachment Style, Childhood Trauma, and Maladaptive Beliefs” (Gen Hosp Psychiatry 2015;37/1:81–88)

The assessment and remediation of boundary-challenged healthcare professionals is enhanced through examination of individual risk factors. We assessed three such factors--attachment style, childhood trauma and maladaptive beliefs--in 100 attendees (mostly physicians) of a CME professional boundaries course. We propose a theoretical model which draws a causal arc from childhood maltreatment through insecure attachment and maladaptive beliefs to elevated risk for boundary violations.
