Most adolescents report few depersonalization experiences. Intense depersonalization correlates with heightened self-awareness, not lower self-esteem, in adolescents, with sex differences emerging by mid-adolescence.

Area of Science:

  • Psychology
  • Developmental Psychology
  • Adolescent Psychology

Context:

  • Depersonalization experiences are common in adolescence.
  • Understanding these experiences is crucial for adolescent development.
  • Previous research has not fully explored the nuances of depersonalization in this age group.

Purpose:

  • To investigate the prevalence of depersonalization in adolescents.
  • To examine the relationship between depersonalization, self-esteem, and self-awareness.
  • To identify age and sex differences in depersonalization experiences.

Summary:

  • A study of 352 adolescents (aged 12-16) using standardized questionnaires revealed that most reported minimal depersonalization.
  • Depersonalization experiences increased with age in females, while decreasing in mid-adolescence for males.
