Abstract:

This study examined the prevalence of undiagnosed dissociative disorders in a sample of 201 adult patients admitted to a private psychiatric hospital in a major metropolitan city in the south-central United States, over an eight-month period. A screening measure, two blind structured interviews, and a blind clinical interview were employed. The lifetime prevalence of dissociate disorders among the interviewed subjects was 40.8%. More specifically, 7.5% were diagnosed with dissociative identity disorder, 15.4% with dissociative disorder not otherwise specified, 13.4% with dissociative amnesia,

Abstract:

There is a paucity of research on the diagnosis of dissociative disorders in children. Most children are misdiagnosed with more common mental disorders with similar symptoms. Earlier recognition of dissociative disorders can save years of pain, suffering, and cost. This qualitative collective case study examined the process of diagnosing dissociation in two children under the ages of 12 at the beginning of treatment. A concurrent focus on the training and development of the therapist/researcher is included. Archival data including progress notes, psychotherapy notes, assessments, correspondenc

Abstract:

Objectives: Historically, conversion symptoms have been understood to emerge within situations that generate strong emotions. From the modern perspective of integrative neuroscience, conversion symptoms can be conceptualised more specifically as involving motor-sensory/autonomic responses to situations that present a serious threat to self and that, in turn, elicit strong negative emotions. Like other responses to threat, they may be primed and fine tuned in the context of repeating, stressful interactions with attachment figures—the child’s environmental context—and automatically triggered

Abstract:

For the mental health professional, the client with Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) can be exciting, exhausting and frustrating. Formal education offers little help in treatment and diagnosis of this disorder. This paper will explore the most utilized treatment goals available to the professional and the client. Although most "experts" in the field of Dissociative Disorders subscribe to the treatment goal of integration, this study challenges that idea. As the results of the study indicate, integration was not the most utilized goal of treatment among the participants of this study.

Abstract:

Dissociation may be broadly described as a subjective experience in which information from the individual's internal or external environment is not appropriately integrated into conscious awareness, memory or identity. A number of studies have found an association between dissociative experience and anxious arousal, and in particular, between dissociation and trauma. Recent reviews suggest the existence of an unspecified mediating variable that accounts for these associations. The present study compared dissociative experiences reported by a community sample (N = 74) and a sample of individual

Background: Body image disturbances are central to the psychopathology of eating disorders (ED). There is growing recognition that body image is not stable and can be influenced by a variety of factors, however it remains unclear whether perceptual deficits exist in ED individuals. Recent research suggests that experiences of dissociation may undermine the stability of body image and create a vulnerability to body image disturbances. Dissociation is commonly observed in ED and has been linked to body image disturbance. The present study aimed to investigate the relationships between experience

Abstract:

Borderline and schizotypal personality constructs were compared as predictors of dissociation for 971 nonclinical university undergraduates who completed 11 self-report behavior inventories. Structural equation modeling and multiple regression were used to (a) test the hypothesis that the quantitative interaction of borderline and schizotypal constructs would be the strongest predictor of dissociation and (b) evaluate each construct alone as well as their additive effect for prediction of dissociation. The interaction hypothesis was rejected; the quantitative interaction was only a substantive

Abstract:

Several trials have reported rapid antidepressant response from the anesthetic drug ketamine although the mechanism behind this effect is not fully understood. Research has focused mainly on ketamine’s action in the brain, including its effects on chemical balance, connections between brain cells and networks, and cognition. Trials with psychedelic drugs have had similar antidepressant results as ketamine, and the quality of the subjective psychedelic experience seems to mediate antidepressant action. Ketamine causes similar alterations of consciousness, which have been viewed as side effects.
