    Peritraumatic dissociation has been considered an important feature to development of post-traumatic stress disorders, but this concept still remains unclear. Studies on the concept of dissociation are rare and prospective studies during or immediately after a trauma event are scarce. Most of them are retrospective, based on standardized questionnaires and carried out long after the trauma event. In order to adequately explore the peritraumatic dissociative phenomenon, we considered the nature of conscious human experience and the subjectivity of our object of study. We interviewed eight patients, victims of urban violence up to 1 month after the traumatic event. The interviews? content were compared, analyzed and encoded according to the Grounded Theory. The reported alterations by these individuals were coded on (A) their perceptions about the inner world, (B) the outer world, (C) as well as the impressions of third-party including the examiner?s observations. Patients manifested entire intermeshed experiences of feelings, expressions, beliefs and actions, all permeated with biographical details, but not integrated enough to allow their perceptual experience to be congruent, consistent and meaningful as the experience of being/existing. Peritraumatic dissociative experience presented itself as a failure in the capacity to synthesize the emerging signs of the inner (their mind/body unit) and outer world (other people and objects, including the space-time flow structure) in a consistent and meaningful way, departing from intact cognitive-perceptual tools. Adequate and faithful distinctions of a concept are the fundamental basis for classification, research and treatment. This finding implies on critical positioning to manage peritraumatic dissociation.
