Abstract
Chapter 8 provides closing remarks and conclusions about the field of relational psychopathology. In addition, the complexity of defining and diagnosing psychopathology related to the four models is summarized. The implications of how these models and the related outcomes may be measured and operationalized in the context of pathology and resilience are also considered. Finally, the benefits of deadly drama triangle and relational competence theory and what they offer researchers and scholars (i.e., an alternative way to think about pathology going forward) are discussed.
