This paper reviews 50 case studies of dissociative disorders in Japanese children and examines the feature from the standpoints of “age of initial diagnosis”, “gender”, “diagnosis”, “family background”, “life episode”, “symptoms”, “type of therapist”, “therapy style, technique and theory used”, “length of treatment”, and “convalescence”. Results clarified that, before reaching the age of 15, few children of dissociative disorders seek medical consultation despite showing signs of illness. Also it is possible that “an abusive growing environment”, “parents with hands-off policy or over-protective child-rearing attitude”, “a good boy/girl personality”, and “traumatic episodes such as being bullied or sexually abused” are some of the indicators used in identifying child dissociative disorders. The paper concludes that dissociative disorders among Japanese children should be identified earlier in life by assessing his/her growing environment, parents’ child-rearing attitude, personalities, and traumatic episodes, and professional personnel should refer these children to appropriate medical treatment as soon as possible.
