Dissociation Questionnaire (DIS-Q)
The Dissociation Questionnaire (DIS-Q) is a self-report instrument for assessing the frequency and severity of dissociative experiences in individuals. It is particularly relevant for screening for dissociative disorders, especially in clinical settings with people who have experienced psychological trauma or have conditions associated with dissociative symptoms.
