Delineates the etiological antecedents of Dissociative Identity
Disorder (DID) and enumerates upon the scientific evidence proving the
existence of DID. This paper explains the diagnostic criteria of DID,
its incidence rates and cross-cultural characteristics, present
arguments to counter the idea that suggestibility may be a factor in
its misdiagnosis and delineate the data that shows a clear connection
between traumatic wartime experiences and dissociation and trauma and
DID. It considers the historical development of the debate surrounding
DID, including its increased diagnosis around the turn of the last
century, reasons for its decline in diagnosis in the mid part of the
last century and reasons for its increased diagnosis toward the end of
the 20th century. It deliberates upon the claims made by several
researchers that DID can be created in the laboratory as well as the
critiques surrounding those claims. It discusses the neurobiological
evidence proving the connection between DID and certain
neurobiological indicators. Included is a discussion of the modern
theory of iatrogenic DID and a critique of this theory. A debate about
the creation of DID as a social construction and critiques of this
theory are presented as well. It concludes, by presenting the argument
that the research on DID shows it to be a valid psychiatric diagnosis
which robustly meets all the necessary validity requirements.

Describes the methods and criteria used for diagnosing and assessing
Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID). The symptoms and etiology of DID
are discussed. The use of client histories, different psychological
tests and the test results of different test items are discussed in
terms of their applicability to a diagnosis, as well as their validity
and reliability. Differential diagnoses and their effect on the
diagnosis of DID are enumerated upon. The dissociative spectrum and
ritual abuse are discussed briefly, in order to help clarify the
symptomology and etiology of DID.

Presents research showing the biological basis for the theory of
recovered memory. It defines recovered memory as the phenomenon of
partially or fully losing part or a specific aspect of a memory, and
then later recovering part or all of the memory into conscious
awareness. This paper includes data from the works of van der Kolk and
Fisler, Knopp and Benson and Bremner. Supporting data will include
PTSD studies on Vietnam veterans and survivors of childhood trauma,
subjective reports of memory, measurements of stress-responsive
neurohormones, animal research on neurohormones, neuroimaging and MRI
brain studies. Different theories of memory and amnesia are also
presented.
