- Conclusions
- Diagnosis of
MPD is very
unreliable.
Women are
more likely to
be diagnosed
than men.
- In 1977 Chris Sizemore (Eve’s
real name) wrote ‘I’m Eve’ and
revealed herself as the famous
Eve in TV interviews.
- Thigpen and Cleckley were
convinced that they had
witnessed an example of MPD. It
is thought that MPD is usually a
response to child abuse-a way
to protect him/herself.

MPD is very
unreliable.
