NR 607 FINAL EXAM REVIEW QUESTION
SET WITH ACCURATE ANSWERS
◉ _____ dissociation is accompanied with memory loss of specific
times, people or events. Out of body experiences such as watching
oneself. Feeling like the world is unreal or distorted or loss of self-
identity.
Answer: PATHOLOGICAL DISSOCIATION
◉ ________ amnesia is difficulty remembering autobiographical
information to a degree inconsistent with normal forgetting (APA,
2022).
Although memory loss most commonly relates to a particular
event, such as combat or abuse, memory loss may also include
details about one's identity or life history. Episodes usually
involve a sudden onset and may last minutes, hours, days, or, less
commonly, months to years (NAMI, n.d.).
Many individuals with ____ amnesia are initially unaware of the
gaps in memory until they notice that they do not recall
information about their identity or when circumstances make
them aware that autobiographical information is missing (APA,
2022).
Answer: DISSOCIATIVE AMNESIA
, ◉ Dissociative amnesia interferes with normal functioning. An
example is someone forgetting a specific traumatic event, like
being the victim of a crime, even though they remember the broad
outlines of the event. They could not remember their name, what
happened that day, what they did, why are they in the hospital
especially with the sexual assault survivors.
Answer:
◉ ______ is as SUDDEN, unexpected travel away from home or
one's customary place of daily activities. Also, the person cannot
recall some or all of one's past. Along with the amnesia, the
person is confused about their identity or may even assume a new
identity.
Dissociative fugue can last from minutes to months and is seen in
individuals with both dissociative amnesia and dissociative
identity disorder.
Answer: Dissociative fugue
◉ ___________ formerly called multiple personality disorder, is a
dissociative disorder in which the individual has two or more
distinct personalities or experiences recurrent episodes of
dissociative amnesia (APA, 2022).
Alternate identities often have unique names, characteristics,
voices, or mannerisms. Women with DID are more likely to
present with dissociative symptoms, while men are more likely to
present with violent behavior, which can lead to false-negative
diagnoses (NAMI, n.d.).
