Dissociative identity disorder (DID) is a psychobiological syndrome associated with a history of exposure to childhood abuse and neglect. The consequences of these traumatic events often include a profound impact on the way individuals inhabit and experience their bodies. Despite this, there is a paucity of empirical research on the subject. The aim of this study was to systematically document the occurrence of distorted body perceptions in DID and examine childhood maltreatment, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptom severity, and posttraumatic cognitions as predictors of distorted body perceptions in DID. Participants were adult women with histories of childhood abuse and neglect and a current DID diagnosis receiving treatment at a psychiatric care facility. Data were obtained through a battery of self-report measures, including the Body Uneasiness Test, Childhood Trauma Questionnaire, PTSD Checklist for DMS-5, and Posttraumatic Cognitions Inventory. A series of unpaired t-tests documented elevated levels of weight phobia, body image concerns, body avoidance, compulsive self-monitoring, and depersonalization in DID compared to published non-clinical data on the Body Uneasiness Test. A series of multiple regression models including measures of childhood trauma, PTSD symptoms, and posttraumatic cognitions demonstrated that over and above childhood trauma and PTSD symptom severity, posttraumatic cognitions significantly predicted distorted body perceptions. In a treatment-seeking sample of women with DID, distorted body perceptions were elevated. Furthermore, posttraumatic cognitive distortions significantly predicted distorted body perceptions when controlling for childhood maltreatment and PTSD symptom severity. This suggests that distorted cognitions are a key target for therapeutic intervention.
