Abstract
This article is an investigation of the current diagnostic criteria set for dissociative identity disorder. Advancements in scholarly research have resulted in the current diagnostic criteria not reflecting new insights gathered since its most recent update. An examination of the progression of diagnostic criteria reveals the need for continual updates, including the proposed stipulation that while distinct, personalities seen in individuals diagnosed with dissociative identity disorder are fragmentations of a singular core, or host, personality. Recommendations for the application of the proposed amendments and its their strengths and limitations are discussed.
