What does the DES test measure?
The Dissociative Experiences Scale (DES) helps assess how often a person experiences dissociation — things like memory gaps, feeling like what’s happening around you isn’t real, or feeling detached from your own thoughts, emotions, or body.
Who is this test for?
It’s designed for adults who want to better understand their own patterns of perception, attention, and memory. It can be particularly useful for people who have been through significant stress or traumatic experiences.
What does a high score mean?
A high score may suggest that dissociative experiences are happening quite frequently. These kinds of states can sometimes be linked to burnout, prolonged stress, trauma, or other psychological difficulties. Speaking with a specialist is the best way to understand what’s behind them.
How is dissociation different from just being distracted?
Everyday distractedness happens to pretty much everyone. Dissociation is different — it can involve a sense that the world around you isn’t real, a feeling of being disconnected from yourself, or significant gaps in memory that are hard to explain away as simply being forgetful.
