Abstract

INDELLI, Pamela; LANDEIRA-FERNANDEZ, J.  and  MOGRABI, Daniel C.. In search of connection: towards a transdiagnostic view of dissociative phenomena through Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) framework. Psicol. clin. [online]. 2018, vol.30, n.3, pp. 509-540. ISSN 0103-5665.  http://dx.doi.org/10.33208/PC1980-5438v0030n03A06.

Current psychiatric nosological classifications maintain a heterogeneous categorical view of clinical presentations that contribute to overlapping symptoms across different disorders, thus influencing appropriate diagnosis and treatment. The United States National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) proposed the Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) project as an alternative dimensional approach that comprises different units of analysis across psychopathology. Although it may represent a paradigm shift, investigations of its application for dissociative phenomena that are present in various clinical conditions are still lacking. The present review examines theoretical models of dissociation and their presence in a wide range of clinical conditions. The literature review indicated the suitability of a transdiagnostic concept of altered states of consciousness by considering dimensions of temporality, narrative, embodiment, affect, and intersubjectivity.

Keywords : dissociation; psychopathology; altered states of consciousness; research domain criteria.
