Differences between multiple personality disorder and other diagnostic groups on structured interview.

The Dissociative Disorders Interview Schedule was administered to 20 subjects with multiple personality disorder, 20 with schizophrenia, 20 with panic disorder, and 20 with eating disorders. The findings showed that multiple personality can be differentiated from the other groups on variables such as history of physical abuse, sexual abuse, substance abuse, sleepwalking, childhood imaginary playmates, secondary features of multiple personality and extrasensory and supernatural experiences. Those with multiple personality also differ from the other groups on DSM-III criteria for multiple personality, psychogenic amnesia, and psychogenic fugue. The groups did not differ on the number of subjects who had had a major depressive episode.

Multiple personality: self-rape.

Multiple personality disorder is the classification given a person for whom two or more distinct personalities are diagnosed. The personalities can be different and vary in character from aggressive to submissive (victimized). The victim alters can be abused and abuse or mutilate self to relieve anxiety or guilt (deserving punishment) or to exert control. Alters may provide a means of expressing anger or other feelings. Aggression towards the body may be sexually oriented, so one may ask whether aggression could make self-rape possible. If so, such expression of self-injuries may be observed in a person with multiple personality as when one alter may injure another. Clinical case material is presented on this concept for a woman who had been formally diagnosed with multiple personality disorder.
