and depression and anxiety were significantly related to each other（51.9% vs.23.1%

χ2=4.668

P=0.031）.Binary logistic regression analysis showed that emotional instability was associated with anxiety（OR =13.390

95%CI =1.352 to 132.624

P=0.027）

while patients with older age were at higher risk of depression（OR=1.534

95%CI=1.133 to 2.078

P=0.006）.Conclusion:The detection rate of depression and anxiety are high among children and adolescents with dissociative（conversion）disorders.Emotional instability is associated with anxiety among children and adolescents cases with dissociative（conversion）disorders
