Abstract

Although relatively few articles and case reports of children diagnosed as multiple personality disorder/dissociation identity disorder have been published, there have been several pioneering attempts to construct or modify checklists of signs and symptoms of MPD in youth. This article applies the currently available checklists to six children who were evaluated by the author and offers additional possible indicators and factors which may function to mask or confuse the diagnostic picture.
