TY - JOUR PY - 2008// TI - Abuse history and pathological dissociation among Israeli and American college students: a comparative study JO - Journal of trauma and dissociation A1 - Lauterbach, Dean A1 - Somer, Eli A1 - Dell, Paul A1 - Vondeylen, Haley SP - 51 EP - 62 VL - 9 IS - 1 N2 - This paper has three objectives: (1) to compare the abuse histories of American and Israeli college students, (2) to closely examine the different types of dissociative experiences among these students, and (3) to compare the dissociative experiences of American and Israeli college students. The US sample reported higher levels of abuse than the Israeli sample. The US and Israeli samples did not differ in overall level of dissociation but the US sample had higher rank-ordered scores for five kinds of dissociation: Flashbacks, Somatoform Dissociation, Persecutory Voices, Temporarily Dissociated Knowledge or Skills, and Being Told of Disremembered Behavior.
