 Shame discussed increasingly in complex trauma and
dissociation literatures (e.g., Chu, 2011; Dorahy, 2010;
Dyer et al., 2009; Kluft, 2007
 Yet, very little work has empirically examined shame in
dissociative disorders.
 Is shame elevated in DID compared to psychiatric
comparison groups?
 Is there an association between shame and
dissociation (e.g., Talbot et al., 2004)
 Are difficulties with intimacy more evident in DID
compared to psychiatric comparisons?
 Are difficulties with intimacy related to dissociation
and/or shame in traumatized groups?
 Previous work has suggested that dissociation is a
stronger predictor of relational/intimacy difficulties
than shame in complex trauma groups (e.g., Dorahy,
2010; Dorahy et al., 2013)

 hierarchical regression on relationship anxiety, rel.
depression and fear of relationships
 Predictors:
 Complex PTSD (without dissociation sx), Child abuse, guilt (step 1)
 Controlled for impact of these variables
 Shame (step 2);
 DES-T (step 3);
 Shame × DES-T (Step 4): To test whether dissociation has a
moderating effect on relationship between shame and rel.
difficulties

 Relationship Anxiety: Rsq = 36.3%, F(6,63)=5.98, p<.001
 Relationship Depression: Rsq=23.4%, F(6,63)=3.31,
p=.008
 Fear of Relationships: Rsq=31.2%, F(6,63)=4.75, p<.05.
 DID in comparison to C-PTSD, had increased:
 Schneiderian first symptoms
 BPD Sx
 Dissociation (trait & pathological)
 Sexual abuse
 DID in comparison to Mixed Psych, had increased:
 All variables
 Thus DID ‘looked’ quite different from C-PTSD and very
different from MP
 More severe symptom profile, more sexual abuse
 When controlling for complex PTSD, CA&N, guilt, &
dissociation, shame showed trend to relationship anxiety.
 Consequently the sense of shame, at least in psychiatric
patients with a history of CA&N, increases anxiety in
relationship (?incl. therapeutic rel), thus best examined early
and gently.
 When controlling for complex PTSD, CA&N, guilt, &
shame, dissociation related to relationship depression
 More dissociation, more negative evaluation of relationships
 Thus dissociation an interpersonal variable
