So I have a player who wants to build a combat hacker with a case of multiple personality disorder dividing up her two aspects. While reviewing the negative quality in augmentation (p.164) one part caught my eye.

"In the event of a personality change, the character must make a willpower + charisma (8, 1 minute) Extended Test. Until that test is completed, the new personality cannot act."

Does this mean that if she finds out she's being traced while in her samurai personality, or is threatened physically (or God forbid shot at) in her hacker personality she will just freeze up in a catatonic state for a minimum of 20 combat turns till she sorts herself out? Or is she just going to be stuck with her previous personality until the switch is complete?

I'm kinda leaning toward the latter, if only for the fact that you only get 20 build points for the quality.
