関係性の持ち方と解離傾向の関連 : 正常解離の下位機能における性差に関する基礎研究 <研究論文>

In this study, we discuss the relationship between relationship style and dissociation tendency. We call this relationship the "R-D relation". The participants were 411 healthy undergraduates (131 males and 280 females) in Kyoto. Their relationship style and dissociation tendency were measured with a self-report questionnaire. Structural equal modeling indicated that the R-D relation is a good model and relationship style is a very strong predictor for dissociation tendency (β = -.871). Multiple regression analyses indicated that the R-D relation pattern differs by gender. In the case of males, the interpersonal relationship factor does not have a significant effect on dissociation tendency. However, in the case of females, this factor has significant effects on dissociation tendency (inattention and occupation). One of the most important points in this study is the relationship between relationship style and dissociation tendency and whether this differs by gender. Our data suggest that necessary dissociative strategies are used in different ways by males and females; accordingly our data suggest that possible dissociation has different meanings for each gender.
