La dissociazione in psicopatologia viene definita come «la frammentazione e/o discontinuità della normale integrazione della coscienza, con particolare riferimento a memorie, identità, emozioni, percezioni, rappresentazioni soma-tiche, controllo motorio e comportamento» (DSM-5, 2013). Storicamente il concetto di dissociazione è stato introdotto per la prima volta alla fine dell’800 da Pierre Janet (désagrégation), che lo definì come il «fallimento nell’integrazione di esperienze (percezioni, memorie, pensieri, emozioni) che sono normalmente associate tra loro nel flusso di coscienza». I suoi meccani-smi neurali sono interpretabili, alla luce delle Neuroscienze, come espressione di una deconnessione cortico-limbica.;

Keywords:dissociazione, ipnosi, fenomenologia, meccanismi neurali.
