The Multidimensional Inventory of Dissociation

The Multidimensional Inventory of Dissociation (MID) a 218-item, clinician-administered, client self-report measure.

Screening Tool Description

“If you’re a clinician or researcher wanting to learn more about the diagnosis of pathological dissociation using an empirically validated and reliable instrument, then you’ve come to to the right place.

Most clinicians have received little or no training about dissociation and dissociative symptoms. This may lead them to fail to notice dissociative symptoms or to misclassify them in terms of a clinical diagnosis with which they are more familiar (e.g., depression, bipolar disorder, or psychosis). Questions about dissociative symptoms are absent from most standard clinical or psychological questionnaires and assessments. This makes the MID, a validated and reliable, 218-item self report inventory, an essential addition to clinical practice – especially when a clinician is serving client populations known to be at-risk for complex trauma. The MID is used by clinicians and researchers worldwide.

The MID, MID Analysis, and MID Interpretive Manual are free for use by trained mental health professionals and researchers seeking to better understand dissociation and dissociative processes from the experiencer’s point of view.”
