“…24 Rogers has listed various factors from adulthood that may in¯uence the recall of CSA, such as mood state, post and current relationships and participation in psychotherapy. 25 Thus different factors which can in¯uence the m em ory of CSA, 22± 25 as well as the number and the nature of the questions asked, might in¯uence our prevalence estimates, possibly leading to an underestim ate of the C SA prevalence. 1,24 Our clinical impression was that the women were frank about sexual abuse, and that they did report incidents if they could remember them.…”

“…Rogers suggested that individuals high in fantasy proneness, absorption, or hypnotic ability may have deficits in reality monitoring, that is, the ability to distinguish actual from imagined events [26]. Although to the authors' knowledge no research is available on fantasy proneness and reality monitoring, Kunzendorf and Karpen found deficits in reality monitoring as a function of the DES [27].…”

To our knowledge, no research has empirically assessed the relationships among dissociation, child abuse, and fantasy proneness in a single study. The present study assessed 1229 male substance abuse patients at a VA Medical Center on dissociation (measured by the Dissociative Experiences Scale, DES), child abuse (measured by the Child Abuse and Trauma scale, CAT), and fantasy proneness (assessed by the Inventory of Childhood Memories and Imaginings, ICMI). A regression analysis was used to predict dissociation with the five CAT subscales and fantasy proneness. The five CAT subscales accounted for 12 percent of the variance when predicting the DES from only the five CAT subscales. However, 22 percent of the variance was accounted for when using both the ICMI and the CAT subscales. Cross-validation regression analysis yielded very similar results. Regression analyses suggested that fantasy proneness is as important as sexual abuse in predicting dissociation. These results may shed light on the recent controversy concerning “repressed memories,” as well as understanding the development of dissociative disorders and differences between borderline personality disorder and the dissociative disorders.

“…Retrospective studies of adults have indicated that adverse childhood experiences, such as ineffective parenting strategies and physical abuse, are associated with elevated Psychopathy Checklist Revised (PCL-R) total and facet scores and related outcomes such as early behavioral problems, an earlier onset of long-term criminal lifestyle, and a greater number of sentences/offenses (Blackburn & Coid, 1998; Laurell & Daderman, 2005; McBride, 1999; Poythress et al, 2006; Raine, 2002; Ullrich, Marneros, & Wittenberg, 2007). However, the accuracy of adult recollections of childhood events and of descriptions of parental personality traits and behaviors may be reduced by degradation of memories, as well as the possible impact of dissociation (Rogers, 1995). Therefore, it is interesting that some studies with adolescent participants have also identified links between environmental constructs and psychopathic traits (e.g., Beaver, Vaughn, DeLisi, Barnes, & Boutwell, 2012; Krischer & Sevecke, 2008).…”

Prior studies have reported correlations between childhood abuse and antisocial behavior and psychopathy, which suggest that exposure to violence may be a risk factor for the development of psychopathy. However, prior studies are largely limited to retrospective studies of adult samples and studies of violence within the home environment. To increase our understanding of risk factors relevant to the development of psychopathy, we investigated associations between self-reports of exposure to violence within the home and community and psychopathic traits in adolescents. A total of 147 adolescents at an Illinois detention center completed the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ) and Community Experience Questionnaire (CEQ) and were assessed using the Psychopathy Checklist: Youth Version (PCL:YV). CEQ and CTQ total scores were associated with psychopathy scores. Moreover, exposure to violence within the community correlated uniquely with scores on the interpersonal, behavioral, and antisocial factor of psychopathy, and exposure to home violence was uniquely related to behavioral factor scores. Results highlight the potential contribution of environmental factors to core components of psychopathy.
