1. INTRODUCTION

Study of split personality has a lot to do with the use of variations data sources. Most researchers examined split personality based on data obtained in print media, such as novel (Anggoro & Kurnia, 2016; Sandjaya & Limanta, 2013; and Comellini, 2015), book (Jafari, 2013), others use data from film (Satriyadi, 2013). Various studies of the split personality is based on the theory of Sigmund Freud.

Split personality commonly called multiple personality is two or more distinct personalities exist within the same individual. Each of these alternate personalities (also called alter personalities) has its own distinctive traits, manner of speech, and memories. In some cases, there is a core personality that is generally known to the outside world and hidden alternate personalities that reveal themselves at certain times or in certain situations. Sometimes the alternate personalities compete for control (Nevid, 2012: 432).

Lucid is a novel full of oddly disquieting moments. Sloane and Maggie have

never met. Sloane is a straight-A student with a big and loving family. Maggie lives a glamorously independent life as an up-and-coming actress in New York. The two girls couldn't be more different - except for one thing. They share a secret that they can't tell a soul. At night, they dream that they're each other. The deeper they're pulled into the promise of their own lives, the more their worlds begin to blur dangerously together.

On Lucid the researcher will analyze the main character of the novel Lucid that is Sloane and maggie. The novel is rich with psychological aspects that are manifested in the characters acts and manners. Sloane is a bright student enjoying the warmth and comfort of a supportive family and Maggie continues her independent, somewhat improvised life as a promising young actress trying to make it in the big city were merely symptoms of her state as not real person, but only hallucination. So, the actual reason behind Sloane’s hallucination of Maggie most reasonably involves her psychological problem and approaching it by this point of view is far more logical concidering it supernaturally: her young age, her sexual regression in the victorian era, her background, her lack of experience in the job, her affection toward her master, and even toward miles are the reasons behind her to have this hallucinations and emerging insanity.

2. METHODS

In this research, the writer uses a qualitative research. It is library research while data sources are using literary data. It purposes to analyze the novel using psychoanalytic perspective. Sutama (2012: 282) describes as a qualitative research studies aimed to describing and analyzing phenomena, events, social activities naturally.

The object of the study is Lucid novel directed by Adrienne Stoltz & Ron Bass. Published in Los Angeles California 2012. The method of data collection is library research, the steps are: reading the novel several time, and taking notes from the material and some other resources related to the novel.

The technique used in analyzing the data is descriptive analysis. The researcher analyzes the data of hallucination according to American Psychiatric Association. Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders: 4 th edition (2000: 5-8).

3. RESULT OF RESEARCH AND DISCUSSION 3.1. Characteristics of Split Personality In The Lucid Novel

Based on the findings of the information in the novel, it is known that multiple personality characteristics in Lucid novel is, there are two names for the identity of one person. That person is Sloane Margaret Jameson. Sloane Margaret Jameson in the novel later introduced as Maggie and as Sloane. In addition to introducing as Maggie and Sloane, a secondary residence of the female figures also have a different address. Maggie lived in Manhattan, New York, while Sloane staying in Mystic, Connecticut.

Another characteristic that is told is that both have different professions. Sloane described as a high school student, and Maggie told as an artist. Sloane worked as a volunteer at an animal hospital clinic, while Maggie an artist who lives in a big city glitz. Two personality in one person can be said split personality. The meaning of split personality is a multiple personality disorder, a neurosis in which the personality becomes dissociated into two or more distinct part cash of which becomes dominant and controls behavior from time to time to the exclusion of the other parts (Ahlers, 2014: 214). Split, or multiple personality is a disorder in which a person has one or more alternate personalities. Each

(8)

personality functions relatively well (except that it may not be aware of the existence of other personalities), is reality-oriented, and lacks the hallucinations, delusions, and thought disorganization characteristic of schizophrenia (Wahl, 2003: 15).

Solving personality or often also called multiple personality disorder, or also known as the alter ego. Is a condition in which an individual personality split that emerged another personality. Personality is usually an expression of the personality of the main emerging as major private cannot realize the things you want to do. In simple terms it can be said that there is one person who has a private more than one or two of personal time. Sometimes the patient does not know that he has a dual personality. Two individuals have in one's body also did not know each other and worse, sometimes these two conflicting personal nature.

Dual personality is formed from a sense of traumatic childhood that usually occurs between the ages of 4-6 years. As the result of previous study from Jafari (2013) explain that The Freudian concepts unconscious and repression introduced a split in the psyche between the conscious and the unconscious infant present and ignores the conscious and the unconscious, which houses trauma. Anggoro & Kurnia (2016) in their research found that Billy is a twenty four-years-old boy who has more than one personality in his mind; every each personality represents his feeling or accommodates his willing to facing problem of life. He grows up in poverty and a sense in traumatic childhood, which usually occurs between ages 4-6 years. The trauma was managed by creating something that hurts another personality for accommodating all feelings.

Patients entertain her of something hurtful to create another personality for accommodating all his feelings. Dual personality is someone trying to entertain themselves by creating another personality that can accommodate all of her feelings. The way we know ourselves has a double personality is if we had a different behavior for different conditions or environment.

In the end, the psychologists of the 20th century refer to this phenomenon as Multiple Personality Disorder (MPD). Next, when the name was deemed no longer, this phenomenon was given a new name, Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID). There are two main theories about DID. The first theory says: DID began

(9)

as a child, as a result of physical or sexual violence are severe (abuse). But since not everyone who experienced violence as a child suffering from DID, it is said that there may be other things that are present among those who suffer from DID. Some say the ease with which people are hypnotized facilitate the formation Alters through self-hypnosis, others say people suffering from DID because it is easy or likely to engage in fantasy.

As an adult, a person has character and personality that is strong enough to face the problems of life. However, in children who were aged under seven years old, it has not yet appeared force so that they will look for other ways to survive against a traumatic experience, namely the dissociation. By using this way, a child can create his conscious mind in spite of the terrible experience that happened to him. According to Colin Ross, who wrote the book The Osiris Complex (1995), the process of dissociation in children that leads to abnormalities DID consists of two psychological processes.

We'll take sexual harassment experienced by a girl. First: the victims who suffered the pain of repeatedly trying to deny the incident in his mind. Girls who repeatedly sexually abused will try to deny this bitter experience in his mind. She imagined herself "detached" from the body and from traumatic experiences. He thinks being looked at other girls who were sexually abused. Here, a different new identity began to emerge. The second process: a memory barrier between girls and then built it with a new identity has been created. It is forming a new awareness that prevented him remember the event, but a few other personalities who remember

If sexual abuse continues, the victims will continue to dissociation even in matters not related to the traumatic experience. If sexual abuse continues, this process will continue to repeat that again created many new identities to resolve it. When this dissociation becomes ingrained habit, the child will continue to create new identities for things that are not related to traumatic experiences, such as going to school or play with his friends.

The main cause of split personality of Margaret Sloane Jameson is because she loss of a father figure. Her father died. The departure of this father figure to the make Sloan lost lamented, lost people who can be believed.

Sloane have lost her father, the most important person in the world to her, the one person could trust her with her problems. The relationship of Sloane with

her mother is so disconnected that she's basically a girlfriend and not even a terribly close one. Sloane adore her sister, but she needs her and Sloane felt the weight of that responsibility. Sloane had no truly close friends except for Andrew, who was not around when she started this.

This result of research redundant Schomerus previous study, Denis Kenzin, Julia Borsche Herbert Matschinger Matthias C. Angermeyer. The association of schizophrenia with split personality is not an ubiquitous

(11)

phenomenon. 2007. The research, mentions that, one may psychoanalyze a particular character within a literary work, but it is usually assumed such that all the characters are mere projections of the author's psyche. Robert Albert Bloch (April 5, 1917-September 23, 1994) was an American fiction writer, primarily of crime, horror, fantasy and science. At ten years of age, living in Maywood, he Attended a screening of Lon Chaney, Sir's film The Phantom of the Opera (1925) late at night on his own. The scene of Chaney removing his mask Terrified the young Bloch and sparked his interest in horror. This novel Psycho is one of the first examples at full length of Bloch's use of modern urban horror relying on the horrors of interior psychology rather than the supernatural, the which turned his psychological approach literature in modern time comparatively unique.

The cause of the emergence of multiple personality disorder is not known and much debated. The debate occurs mostly between supporters of the hypothesis of "double personality is a reaction to trauma" with "memory processing disorder". Sleep disorders are also considered to play a role in multiple personalities. Changes in the environment also affects most patients with multiple personalities.

Research is needed to determine the prevalence of disorders in those who have never been in therapy and prevalence rates across cultures. Issues relating to the epidemiology of multiple personality remains unresolved although there have been studies for decades. The debate over the causes of multiple personality also extends to disagreements over how these disorders are assessed and treated. a. Developments trauma

People who are diagnosed as having multiple personalities is often reported that they had experienced physical violence and harassment sexual, especially in the early to middle childhood (although the accuracy of this report is debated), had suffered from a serious medical illness, or other traumatic events. Sexual trauma, physical, or psychological severe childhood has been proposed as the cause of the development of consciousness, memories, and emotions of the event, and an alternate personality or subpersonalities shaped by memories, emotions, and behavior are different.

(12)

Multiple personality disorder can be caused by severe stress. Post traumatic stress disorder in adults can be a multiple personality disorder when it occurs in children, probably because they use a strong imagination to cope with the disorder. Experience extreme trauma can make of that appearance of symptoms of multiple personality disorder or personality disorder. Lack of social support is also considered as an important component triggers multiple personalities. Parents are advised to embrace a child who experienced the separation between the memories or experiences with consciousness.

b. Dual personalities in children

Multiple personality disorder is rarely diagnosed in children. This fact is used as a reason to doubt the veracity of multiple personality disorder. There are no studies on the comparison of the number of children who have a split personality with the general population.

The fourth revised edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders of the American Psychiatric Associstion (DSM-IV-TR) criteria for diagnosing multiple personality disorder diagnosis based on section 300.14 (dissociative disorders). Quite difficult to diagnose this disorder, because there is no agreement on the definition of multiple personality disorder universally. Such criteria include adults who repeatedly controlled by two or more identities or personalities, accompanied by memory disorders will be important information that is not caused by alkohol, drugs and other medical conditions. While the diagnostic criteria for children also determine whether the symptoms were really a disorder or simply the imagination of children. Diagnosis is usually made by a mental health professional such as a psychiatrist or psychology through clinical evaluation, interviews with family and friends, and other considerations. Interview about personality assessment designed specifically (such as the SCID-D) can also be used in the evaluation.

Multiple personality disorder is now more usually called dissociative identity disorder. It is one of the more misunderstood mental illness, often capturing the interest of writers and filmmakers, who tend to describe in its most exaggerated form. What is most important to understand is that multiple personality disorder is not schizophrenia. Both are often confused. However, in very rare cases, personality, or change, as it is sometimes called, Schizophrenic.

(13)

Multiple personality disorder is almost always caused by trauma, or past trauma such as early childhood sexual or physical abuse. When trauma occurs during a long period of time, the affected person may begin to cope with completely disconnecting from the event that caused the trauma. This can lead to "alter" personality that separate the same people are well aware, or not aware of the abuse. Alter can be like a little kid, strong, male, or female, and often appears as a deterrent.

Psychiatrists make the difference between people who have some personality, and believe they have some personality. In general, multiple personality disorder is the belief on the part of the patient that several personalities seem to have in themselves.

One of the main characteristics of multiple personality disorder is that people seem "lost" time. They do not seem to realize that time has passed; but someone observing them may see them acting in different ways. But the victims, tend not to know what had happened. The central public personality seems the most likely to separate if the person is faced with a situation that can evoke a previous trauma, or if the person is still entangled in a traumatic situation.

Other symptoms of multiple personality disorder, including depression, confusion, suicidal thoughts, phobias, different levels of ability to function "normally," anxiety, and the treatment itself, such as alcoholism or drug abuse. In addition, people with multiple personality disorder can harm themselves, have a high degree of panic or panic attacks, have eating disorders or are prone to headaches.

As depicted in the novel, multiple personality disorder seems to always consist of a number of very different personalities, which is not always the case in reality. Conversely, people with multiple personality disorder may pass from greater awareness less, without putting on a different accent or assuming a completely separate identity, though some who have different personalities. Multiple personality disorder that produces crime, as presented in several television series and with great effect in the Richard Gere movie Primal Fear rarely exists.

(14)

The main treatment for multiple personality disorder is therapy, which may include play therapy, hypnosis, art therapy, and / or speech therapy. Medication is usually not preferred because of the possibility of an overdose, and because the dissociative state is not chemically. The goal is to get alters in communication with one another, so that the person does not continue to separate from reality. A secondary objective is to ensure the person is removed from the ongoing traumatic situations, such as removing a child from a rough home.

When a person has a different personality reintegration, may still need treatment, possibly drug therapy to treat the underlying psychological conditions such as chronic depression or schizophrenia. However, while people are still "lost time," drug therapy may be totally ineffective because people may not remember to take the medication or may accidentally overdose.

Treatment is usually a long process, especially when a person has suffered repeated trauma. It can take several years for patients to start feeling awake at all times, actions and thoughts. However, clinical studies have shown that treatment for multiple personality disorder effective, if these therapies continue to be pursued.

a. Differential diagnosis of multiple personality

People diagnosed with multiple personality have an average of five to seven comorbid disorders. Because of overlapping symptoms, differential diagnoses, including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, epilepsy, personality disorders restrictions, and Asperger's syndrome. Delusions or auditory hallucinations are often misunderstood as an expression of a different personality. Consistency identity or behavior, amnesia, hipnotisabilitas level, and reports from family members can distinguish between multiple personality with other conditions. Distinguishing DID with the pretense of particular concern when a person is experiencing financial or legal problems. Although the general auditory hallucinations experienced by people who have a split personality, complex visual hallucinations may also occur. But unlike with schizophrenia, people with multiple personality received all the hallucinations of voices in his head, while the schizophrenics receive from the outside.

(15)

Dual personality to be distinguished or determined if it has co morbidity with various disorders including mood disorders (mood), madness, anxiety disorders, post traumatic stress disorder, personality disorders, cognitive disorders, neurological disorders, epilepsy, etc.

b. Diagnosis of multiple personality controversy

Dual personality is the dissociative disorders the most controversial and most controversial disorder in DSM-IV-TR. The main debate took place between those who believe that multiple personality disorder is caused by the stress of traumatic force the mind to split into more than one identity which each consist of a series of memory with those who believe that the symptoms of multiple personality are formed artificially by a particular practice or patient felt he had multiple personalities.

Some psychiatrists believe that the multiple personalities appear because of health problems. There are also saying that multiple personalities are just suggestions from others. Treatment of multiple personalities is not possible because based on anecdotal cases, opinions, and other things that are not related to scientific matters.

3.3. The reason Adrienne Stoltz & Ron Bass address the split personality Lucid Novel

In a Lucid novel, found no reason Adrienne Stoltz & Ron Bass displays the story of multiple personalities. It is not even mentioned also the settlement of the disease multiples Sloane’s. Adrienne Stoltz quotes in website said:

In the quote above, Adrienne Stoltz just said it's hard to tell the difference between how a person perceives to be us and how we feel to be someone else. So, Adrienne Stoltz & Ron Bass does not tell specifically how do the writer address the split personality in the Lucid novel. The author intends for the reader to feel overview the emotions and mind struggle of Sloane and Maggie were unable to

(16)

find a way out to one another clash, buried dream inside Sloane and Maggie being able to "switched places" in order to avoid things that are not fun throughout their lives.

Reasons writes about the behavior of multiple personality disorder, in the novel Lucid, no exist in the narrative novel. Posts dual behavior as outlined in the novel, can only come from a growing phenomenon in society. Adrienne Stoltz & Ron Bass try to share the phenomenon of split personalities as a way to remind the reader that there are split personalities. Readers need to know the characteristics of split personality disorder and can be used as a criterion of personal character to evaluation. This is due to the behavior of multiple personality that often occurs outside the individual consciousness itself.

In previous study from Al-Khazaali (2016) explain that the meaning of the double and to trace the germination and the development of this term and its use in world Literature in general and English Literature in particular, also tries to shed light on the doppelganger (double) as a term its effect upon the novelists and then, to focus upon the idea of duality or as it called later on split-personality due to the theories of Sigmund Freud. Using the double as a technique in modern novels is very significance. It shows the importance of psychology in literature by using the unconscious mind of the main characters. In this respect, It is worth mentioning that Conrad in Heart of Darkness has used the mirror-image, which is one type of the double. Whereas in The Secret Sharer, he depicts the second type of double, that is, double-by-duplication. In both novels, the double or alter ego plays a positive role in the lives of the protagonists. With Virginia Woolf, the case is different, simply because she has adopted the third type of double: split personality. Using the technique of the stream of consciousness, Lucid novel is a highly psychological novel. Freud's influence is more obvious in Lucid novel. In spite of the fact that both writers have used their personal experience to depict the theme of the double.

4. CONCLUSSION

This study investigated split personality characteristics in Split Personality in Adrienne Stoltz & Ron Bass’s Novel Lucid (2012). The conclusion of the study is as follows:

(17)

Firstly, the characteristic of split personality in the Lucid Novel. Mayor character is Maggie and or Sloane. She has more than one personality. Two names were use for identity in the novels of Lucid. Identity who experiences multiple personalities in Lucid is Maggie and Sloan. The book revolves around two figures that have very opposite personalities Sloane and Maggie. When Sloane was asleep, she would dream about Maggie's activities. So did the opposite. It is unclear who is dreaming of whom, who is real. Only if one stops his dream with others then life will be gone. Obviously not, if Sloane to stop dreaming of the life of Maggie then equal the life of Maggie will stop. So did the opposite.

Second, split personality in the Lucid novel can depicted based of her friends, fashion, visited place, consumption, leisure time, way of talking, way of life, way of behaving, and social relation. The split personality shows that major character have double name, there are Maggie and Sloane. Maggie’s friends are Devin Cruikshank, Andrea and Jason, different with Sloane’s friends are Bill, Gordy, James Water, Jade and Nicole. Maggie likes use Hervé Léger bandage dress and some killer McQueen heels and visits Rose Bar, but Sloane like getting jeans and a cotton flowy top and visits Boston Museum of Science. Maggie like drinking red wine from a glass, breakfast oatmeal or eggs and chili dog, while Sloane like to eat the whole sandwich and pancakes. Maggie like lying on the floor of her West Village apartment, listening to the absolute silence, while Sloane like to take walk and study hard.

Split personality of dual personality in Lucid novel consists of way of talking, way of life, way of behaving, and social relation. Way of talking Maggie are discussion and dictating, while way of talking Sloane is discussion. Way of life’s Maggie is glamour like an actress, but Sloane is a realistic girls. Way of behaving of Maggie is try to behaving an actress, while Sloane is natural. Social relation of Maggie are introvert girls, didn’t have much of a social life, and antisocial girl, while Sloane have a good social relation.
