  • Description: Perceptions of normal dissociation, including Western (eg, daydreaming) & non-Western (eg, trance behaviors) perspectives, were examined. Acculturation & frequency of abuse experiences in White American students predicted Western dissociation descriptions. For South American & South Asian students, acculturation predicted non-Western dissociation descriptions. Also, acculturation & the normative worldview made significant contributions to both non-Western & Western descriptions of dissociation, but with different interaction patterns for the South American & South Asian groups. The between group differences (White American vs international students) & within group differences (among international groups) support the assumption that views of dissociation may be culturally based. Implications include the importance of counseling approaches that respond to such cultural variations, thus avoiding misattribution of behavior & ensuring culturally competent counseling assessment & intervention. 4 Tables, 60 References.
