NCT01388140

Brief Summary

The goal of the project is to investigate the prevalence of dissociative disorders in psychiatric inpatients in Taiwan. Relevant clinical issues, including common psychiatric comorbidity (e.g., positive psychotic symptoms), associated psychosocial factors (e.g., negative life events, perceived parenting style), and neuro-cognitive underpinning (e.g., executive functions) were also targeted. Standardized interview schedules, self-report scales, and cognitive tasks will be applied. The investigators hypothesized that dissociative disorders would be associated with positive psychotic symptoms, a history of early interpersonal adversity, and enhanced executive functions.
