Very good information. It allowed me to learn a great deal about symptoms of personality disorders and ways to treat them. This information can be usefull in the future in case I encounter people with personality disorders and allow me to understand them a little more.

I spent several hours on at least two different days browsing the site. I liked
the majority of the information presented and found it easy to understand. There
were a few disorders that were some what vague in their definition or referred
to other disorders which you would have had to look up if you were not familiar
with them. I think this could be used for enhanced teaching and learning. Easy
to use site.

I spent about 75 minutes browsing,and used it for a class discussion. I thought
the quality was great, and the wealth of links available were too, and it does
accurately present concepts. I believe enhancement is for sure.

I spent approximately 1 1/2 hours clicking on all the different topics on the
side bar, after reading the introduction.
I feel the information is very educationally significant. It was straight to
the fact and got the information across well so people could understand it and
learn from it.
This resource could definitely enhance teaching and learning. It is broken down
into categories under certain disorders. You just click on it and it takes you
straight to the necessary information without having to search through long
documents looking for what you are interested in knowing.

user friendly. I was impressed with it.

I spent one hour researching this website and found the contents exceptional.
The information in this website gives the reader enough information to find the
causes and treatments on personality disorders. A person who needs information,
be it for learning or teaching, will find this website highly effective in
producing the needed information.
I find the website very easy to use even for a first time user.
I will recomend this website to my friends and family members.

Courtney Walton (Student)
I spent a while looking through various websites. Probably a half hour or a
little less. The quality of the content was good, but it was not very organized.
It just seemed like a bunch of random websites that could fall under a heading
like clinical psychology. I think it would be pretty much useless for a
classroom learning environment.

very much, but the idea is good.

This is an interesting site that gives the symptoms and treatments for 10
different personality disorders. It also offers links to other sites with
information. There is a tremendous amount of information on this site. It would
make a great source for a research paper. I spent awhile checking it out as it
was very informative and interesting.

June Tristram (Student)
For a first time user I felt it extremely confusing. In addition some of the
links are dead. I can see there is a wealth of information, but getting to it
might take too much clicking and download time. I did spend quite a bit of time
searching. I cannot say if this site is used appropriatley it would enhance
anything, it took to long to navigate around.

Very informative website. Mental Health Net presents information about
personality disorders in a gentle way that does not blame victims of personality
disorders for their problems. Instead, this site gives anyone who wishes to
know more about personality disorders the opportunity to do so. Disorders are
dealt with in the Symtom and Treatment sections where a list of several
disorders is given. In the Symtom section each disorder can be clicked on and a
page will be displayed that breaks the disorder down into some basic behavioral
syptoms and problems associated with the disorder. The Treatment section breaks
down into four basic parts which include Psychotherapy, Hospitalization,
Medication, and/or Self Help. Each of these different options for treatment of a
particular disorder is explained in terms of effectivness, availability, and
nesessity depending upon the severity of the disorder. Links to online
resources, organizations, and supports groups are also provided so anyone who
knows someone with such a disorder can learn more and contact others with
simular problems.

This site is a good source of information about symptoms of particular
disorders. It gives resources for treatments and links to tyoes of rherapy. It
is a very general site but has links to many other sites for further
information.

Technical Remarks:
This site is quite easy to follow. Most of the links seem to still be valid.

There is a plethora of information however it is not well organized/accessible. It would be difficult for a student to determine what is credible and what is not and to quickly overview and navigate the website. Where the information appears to be accurate the delivery and format does not support what I would hope for in an academic resource for students. Â
