Dissociative Disorders

Dissociative disorders Dissociative disorders are characterized by disturbances or changes in memory, consciousness, or identity due to psychological factors.

Specific dissociative disorders 1. Dissociative amnesia involves partial or total loss of important personal information that may occur after a stressful or psychologically traumatic event. There is no organic cause. 2. Dissociative fugue occurs when the individual suffers confusion over personal identity and often assumes a partial or complete new identity. It is accompanied by unexpected travel away from home.

Specific dissociative disorders 3. Depersonalization disorder is the most common dissociative disorder and is characterized by feelings of unreality concerning the self and the environment. It is characterized by the intensity of the symptoms and anxiety provoked by the symptoms. Most young adults have experienced some symptoms of this disorder.

Specific dissociative disorders 4. Dissociative identity disorder (formerly called multiple personality disorder) is a rare, dramatic, and controversial disorder characterized by the existence of two or more distinct personalities within one person. a. The original personality is unaware of other personalities, but they are conscious of the original personality and often of each other. b. Each personality maintains its own identity, name, and distinctive behavior pattern. c. The diagnosis of this disorder is controversial. Even research showing different brain wave patterns for personalities is now suspect since others have shown an ability to produce different brain waves on demand.

Explaining dissociative disorders 1. Dissociation is a relatively common response to traumatic experience. People report feeling detached from their surroundings and their own bodies. 2. In those persons with dissociative disorders the dissociative experiences are more extreme and frequent, and the symptoms severely disrupt everyday functioning. 3. The learning perspective views dissociation as rewarding and thus highly reinforcing. 4. Some psychologists suggest that dissociative identity disorder is a diagnostic fad.
