Albert best illustrates a personality disorder schizotypal. This personality disorder includes a marked deficit to interact socially, and avoidance of interpersonal relationships even with one's family. It is also characterized by cognitive distortions that produce eccentric ideas or beliefs and eccentric and isolated behavior. This disorder is related to the schizophrenic disorder, but its symptoms are minor and hallucinations and delusions do not occur.
