psychometric assessment
Diagnostic TestPsychometric testing to assess trauma and dissociative disorders, and in particular dissociative identity disorder.
NCT Number: NCT06330467
The investigators will study the prevalence of dissociative identity disorder (DID) in three populations at risk in cases of childhood psychotrauma : patients with a diagnosis of borderline personality, patients with a diagnosis of functional dissociative crises (FDC) and patients with early psychosis.
The investigators will also study the prevalence of other dissociative disorders and the frequency of complex post-traumatic stress disorder.
The investigators will also look for correlations between the type of maltreatment in childhood, the age of onset of trauma and the type of diagnosis of dissociative disorders.
The investigators hope to include 150 borderline patients, 150 FDC patients and 50 early psychosis patients.
Data collection will be done via a psychometric administration of 7 self-completion questionnaires as well as the completion of the SCID-D semi-structured interview.

II- Non-inclusion criteria
Psychometric testing to assess trauma and dissociative disorders, and in particular dissociative identity disorder.
Semi-structured interview for the assessment of dissociative disorders (SCID-D : Semi-structured Clinical Interview for diagnosing DSM-5 and ICD-11 Dissociative Disorders)
Time frame: Inclusion visit
assesses the dissociative identity disorder
Time frame: Inclusion visit
assesses the 4 others domains of dissociative disorders
Time frame: Inclusion visit
assesses history of childhood abuse and childhood trauma. For the CTQ-28, the overall score is not really relevant, but rather the scores for each type of abuse. For each type of maltreatment, there are differences in severity, ranging from "none" to "severe", with threshold scores for each level. In fact, there is no real overall minimum or maximum score.
Time frame: Inclusion visit
assesses history of potentially traumatic life events. There is no numerical score, it's simply an inventory of potentially traumatic life events.
Time frame: Inclusion visit
assess the Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. For the PCL-5, the threshold score is 33, so a score of 33 or more suggests the presence of PTSD : the higher the score, the greater the symptomatology. The score is not a value used for interpretation purposes. The investigators use only threshold scores, or diagnostic criteria.
Time frame: Inclusion visit
assesses simple and complex post-traumatic stress syndrome. For the ITQ, there is no real numerical score; the diagnosis of PTSD or complex PTSD is made on the basis of the diagnostic criteria met.
Scores are not given with numbers, but only with the presence or absence of simple or complex PTSD. There is no minimum or maximum score.
Time frame: Inclusion visit
assess somatoform dissociation. For the SDQ-20, the threshold score is 28, and there are no levels of severity: the higher the score, the more severe the somatoform dissociative disorders. However, the score should be treated with caution, as if the symptoms reported by the patient are explained by a medical cause, we cannot conclude that dissociative disorders are present despite the score.
Time frame: Inclusion visit
assess the dissociative disorders. For the DIS-Q, the threshold score is 2.5. The score is not a value used for interpretation purposes. The investigators use only threshold scores, or diagnostic criteria.
Time frame: Inclusion visit
assess the dissociative disorder. For the DES, there is a threshold score of 15, and the higher the score, the more severe the dissociative disorders, but there are no multiple levels of severity. The score is not a value used for interpretation purposes. The investigators use only threshold scores, or diagnostic criteria.
