In subclassifying 62 cases of DSM-III dissociative disorders in India, the authors found that 56 (90.3%) fell into the atypical subcategory. These cases could be easily separated into two additional subcategories, simple dissociative disorder and possession disorder, by using specified diagnostic criteria.
