This is nothing to do with multiplicity, it's about media portrayals of schizohprenia conforming to what the psych industry wants revealed. (for example, that some schizophrenia can be treated via ordinary psychotherapy). Why was the real story of how John Nash (the "Beautiful Mind" guy) learned to recognize and ignore hallucinations covered up in the movie and a remark about "new medication" substituted? The whole site is worth looking at.
You might try to find a copy of Eugene Bleuler's original Dementia Praecox book from 1911. His description of schizophrenia as groups of psychological complexes or functions which take turns as the dominant focus of the personality is probably partly responsible for the misunderstanding. The first serious research into multiplicity was being done about the same time (Dr. Walter Prince was working with Doris Fischer for instance).
