内容説明
Spanos rejects the traditional view by arguing that MPD is in large part a sociohistorical product. To reinforce his case, he marshalls an extensive body of research that supports a sociocognitive alternative to the disease model. The book critically examines commonly held views about hypnotic amnesia as an "altered state", which some investigators link with the amnesia purportedly experienced by MPD patients. It investigates the nature of memory and the complex issues surrounding the reported recovery during psychotherapy of memories of childhood abuse. It also explores the parallels between MPD and posits their relation to such historical and sociocultural phenomena as spirit possession, witchcraft, glossolalia and hysteria. And it evaluates the role of social learning and validation in the development of MPD. This book should be of interest to clinicians, researchers and all individuals intrigued by the psychology of altered states.

内容説明
Multiple personality-the mysterious capture of the body by alien, unseen personalities, or "alters"-is the stuff of courtroom drama and the basis of riveting accounts like Sybil. It's also a staple in horror movies, and that, according to Nicholas Spanos, is where it should stay.
In Multiple Identities and False Memories, Spanos, one of the world's leading experts in the study of hypnosis, delivers a blistering rebuttal to long-held assumptions about multiple personality disorder (MPD) or dissociative identity disorder (DID).
Written in a forceful, unapologetic style, and bolstered by a thorough examination of the relevant science, this book argues that MDP, or DID, is not a legitimate psychiatric disorder but a cultural construct, one with roots in earlier beliefs about demonic possession and upheld today by misguided psychotherapists and their patients.
Multiple Identities is a vivid, scholarly statement on a subject that fascinates psychology professionals, sociologists, cultural critics, and lay readers alike.
This softcover edition is a re-release of the 1996 hardcover edition.
