    Published in European Journal of Psychotraumatology

    Methodology

    Meta-analysis of randomized and observational studies examining dissociation as a moderator of psychotherapy outcome in PTSD.

    Key Findings

    Dissociation did not reduce the effectiveness of trauma-focused psychotherapy; patients with high dissociation improved comparably.

    Conclusions

    Dissociative symptoms should not exclude patients from trauma-focused therapy.

    Limitations

    Varying dissociation measures across studies.
