Examples of compartmentising (behaviour)?

Can anyone explain the types of behaviour associated with this conditon. Thank you.

Answer:
My answer is not based on anything scientific, but do you mean that some people cannot think about more than one thing at once and they have to complete all dealings with that thing before taking on another project? I have experienced knowing some people like this but I can't explain their behaviour unfortunately. They are just born like this. A type of obsessive compulsive disorder, and in some cases a ploy to deter others from giving them more than one job to do at a time. There is nothing more annoying than when you are cooking from a recipe book and someone will come up and give you a list of more chores needing doing, as if they are completely blind to the fact that you are not lying on a couch with pen and pad in hand waiting for instructions. I hope I have cottoned on to what subject you are talking about and not gone off down the garden parth. I will be watching other answers with interest.
Compartmentalizing? We all us use that mental tool. It helps us to sequester painful emotional responses resulting from some sort of abuse. What is meaningful is the ability for the individual to integrate emotions. Integration of emotion is necessary if we are to be healthy.
