Abstract
In this paper, fifteen cases of MPD detected in Puerto Rican patients are analyzed and contrasted with those reported by Coons, et al. (I988), Putnam, et al. (1986), and Ross, et al. (1989). The comparisons indicate that the Puerto Rican cases have striking parallels with the ones detected in Canada and the USA. It is tentatively concluded that MPD can emerge in a social and cultural setting quite different from that of the continental United States.
