obsessive-compulsive personality disorder

obsessive-compulsive personality disorder
[DSM-IV] a personality disorder characterized by an emotionally constricted manner that is unduly conventional, serious, rigid, stubborn, and stingy; by preoccupation with trivial details, rules, order, organization, schedules, and lists to the extent that the major point of an activity is lost or task completion is delayed; by reluctance to delegate tasks or work cooperatively unless everything is done one's own way; and by excessive devotion to work and productivity to the detriment of interpersonal relationships. This is not the same as obsessive-compulsive disorder, which is an anxiety disorder.
