  1. obsessive-compulsive personality

    Obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (OCPD) is a type of personality disorder marked by a pattern of excessive concern with orderliness, perfectionism, mental and interpersonal control, at the cost of flexibility, openness, and efficiency. People with this disorder are often preoccupied with details, rules, lists, and organization, to the point where the major goal of the activity is lost, displaying rigidity and stubbornness in their activities and relationships. Note that OCPD differs from obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), which involves specific, anxiety-inducing obsessions and compulsions.
