Maladaptive daydreaming (MD), a recently proposed dissociative condition, involves excessive immersion in fantastical inner worlds, often at the expense of real\u2010life engagement, leading to distress and functional impairment. The present study aimed to examine whether maladaptive daydreamers' persistent focus on imagined events and an idealized self, alongside reduced attention to real experiences, may create confusion, impair memory, and ultimately disrupt self\u2010coherence.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Method<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      <jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u2009191 adults (88 with MD, 74% female,\n                      <jats:italic>M<\/jats:italic>\n                      <jats:sub>age<\/jats:sub>\n                      \u2009=\u200928.92,\n                      <jats:italic>SD<\/jats:italic>\n                      <jats:sub>age<\/jats:sub>\n                      \u2009=\u200910.86; 103 controls, 75% female,\n                      <jats:italic>M<\/jats:italic>\n                      <jats:sub>age<\/jats:sub>\n                      \u2009=\u200930.06,\n                      <jats:italic>SD<\/jats:italic>\n                      <jats:sub>age<\/jats:sub>\n                      \u2009=\u200910.90) completed objective memory tasks (Autobiographical memory test; Reality monitoring test), and questionnaires (Dissociative experiences scale, childhood trauma questionnaire, maladaptive daydreaming scale, self\u2010concept clarity, and a newly developed confabulation experiences questionnaire).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      As predicted, autobiographical memory in MD was impaired (MD\u2009=\u20096.48 [2.93], Control\u2009=\u20097.46[2.65],\n                      <jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic>\n                      (189)\u2009=\u2009\u22122.41,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u2009.05,\n                      <jats:italic>d<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u2009\u2212.35), more confabulation experiences were reported (MD\u2009=\u200916.63[12.69], Control\u2009=\u200911.94[10.23],\n                      <jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic>\n                      (189)\u2009=\u20092.78,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u2009.01,\n                      <jats:italic>d<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u2009.40) and self\u2010concept was less coherent (MD\u2009=\u200929.14[8.60], Control\u2009=\u200935.89[10.18],\n                      <jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic>\n                      (189)\u2009=\u2009\u22124.87,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u2009.001,\n                      <jats:italic>d<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u2009\u2212.71).
