Then the second objective is to find the most prominent trigger of Amy Dunne‘s personality disor- der. Library research is applied in order to find reliable theories in this study. There are two sources that are used to finish the study. The first is Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn and the second is theoretical books, articles, and journals. To ana- lyze the characteristics and the most prominent trigger of Amy‘s personality dis- order, this study employed psychological approach. From this study, it is found that Amy Dunne shows some symptoms that refer to personality disorder. Personality disorder itself has ten types, and Amy shows three types which are antisocial personality disorder, narcissistic personali- ty disorder, and borderline personality disorder. Those three types belong to clus- ter B and have similar symptoms. Amy shows some symptoms which are she tends to be self-centered, tends to be impulsive, manipulate, violate the law, and attempt suicide. Personality disorder can be caused by some triggers, environment and genetics. In this case, Amy‘s environment has a big role to shape her person- ality. Amy‘s personality disorder is triggered by some causes. The first trigger is from her parents who write a children book Amazing Amy as the perfect child so it shaped her as a perfectionist and it triggers her narcissistic personality disorder. The second is her friend in high school, she is being rejected by a boy. The third is her best friend and Amy gets jealous with her best friend. The last is her husband, Amy finds that her husband is cheating on her and that is when Amy‘s personality disorder starts to reveal. She starts to arrange revenge to her husband. From there, her characteristics are shown. And from all of those triggers, the most prominent trigger of Amy‘s personality disorder is Amy‘s husband.
