DES: Dissociation Experience Scale

The Dissociative Experiences Scale (DES) is a 28 question long psychological self-assessment questionnaire that measures a wide variety of types of dissociation, including both problematic dissociative experiences, and normal dissociative experiences (e.g., day-dreaming). It is a screening tool for dissociative disorders, especially Dissociative Identity Disorder (Multiple Personality Disorder) and dissociative disorder not otherwise specified.
