Summary
This study looks at how common dissociative tendencies are in adults with obesity who are seeking medical or surgical help for the first time. Participants fill out questionnaires that measure dissociation, eating behaviors, and other related factors. The goal is to better understand whether dissociation is linked to obesity, which could help improve care.
