‘The relationship between dissociation and panic symptoms in adolescence and the exploration of potential mediators’
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances
Dissociative experiences have been linked to panic symptoms in adolescents, yet the nature of the association remains unclear.
In the present study, we investigated the longitudinal relationship between dissociative experiences (focusing on the felt sense of anomaly subtype) and panic, as well as the potential mediating roles of emotion regulation strategies (expressive suppression and cognitive reappraisal), alexithymia, and cognitive appraisals of dissociation. Four thousand five hundred one adolescents aged 13–18 years were recruited via social media advertising to take part in an online survey at two timepoints, 1 month apart.
