Trait dissociation is the measurable degree to which an individual may experience interruption of conscious flow which temporarily alters their perceptive reality on a recurring basis. Predominate literature thus far focuses only on the negative aspects/disease model of dissociation as those with elevated dispositional dissociation scores are predisposed to develop related disorders. My proposed research seeks to uncover a potential beneficent link between higher trait dissociation and positive affect by way of absorptive (imaginative) assimilation.
