Why is it important?
The study's findings corroborate previous research confirming high levels of dissociation among adolescents in a specific care population, with the ADES questionnaire demonstrating the ability to measure dissociation. Utilising the ADES can offer an opportunity to understand the presentation of dissociation in looked-after children, and for clinicians, may provide a deeper comprehension when formulating a more sophisticated support or treatment plan.
