The relationship between childhood adversities and dissociation in severe mental illness: a meta‐analytic review
Open accessAbstract
Objective: Several studies have observed that dissociative experiences are frequently reported by individuals with severe mental illness (SMI), especially amongst patients that report a history of adverse/traumatic life experiences. This review examined the magnitude and consistency of the relationship between childhood adversity (sexual abuse, physical abuse, emotional abuse, neglect, bullying, natural disasters and mass violence) and dissociation across three SMI diagnostic groups: schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and personality disorders. Method: A database search (EMBASE, PubMed and PsycINFO) identified 30 eligible empirical studies, comprising of 2199 clinical participants. Effect sizes representing the relationship between exposure to childhood adversity and dissociation were examined and integrated using a random‐effects meta‐analysis. Results: The results indicated that exposure to childhood trauma was associated with heightened dissociation across SMIs. Positive significant associations were also found between specific childhood adversities and dissociation, with aggregated effect sizes in the small‐to‐moderate range. Conclusion: These findings support calls for the routine assessment of traumatic experiences in clients with SMIs presenting with dissociative symptoms and the provision of adequate therapeutic support (e.g. trauma‐focused therapies) to manage and resolve these difficulties.

Previous metanalyses demonstrate a robust link between dissociative experiencing and exposure to trauma.
“Previous metanalyses demonstrate a robust link between dissociative experiencing and exposure to trauma (Rafiq et al., 2018; Vonderlin et al., 2018).”
From Trauma-related dissociation and the autonomic nervous system: a systematic literature review of psychophysiological correlates of dissociative experiencing in PTSD patients (2022) · cites this paper as Rafiq et al., 2018
The available copy identifies the work as a meta-analytic review of childhood adversities and dissociation in severe mental illness, but provides only title and bibliographic information, not its findings. Searches for an association, effect size, and results found no passage establishing the claimed robust link. (LLM, conf=0.72)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe DD effect size (g=1.25) exceeds the association in non-dissociative clinical samples (r=0.33 [d=0.70]).

From Hypnotic suggestibility in dissociative and related disorders: A meta-analysis (2022) · cites this paper as Rafiq et al., 2018
The available indexed passages are bibliographic metadata and keywords, not the review’s findings. Searches for non-dissociative clinical samples, r = 0.33, d = 0.70, and the effect-size comparison found no passage reporting those results, so the attribution cannot be checked from our copy.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
