Science And The Psychiatric Publishing Industry
A paper in the journal Ethical Human Psychology and Psychiatry, Volume II, Number 1, 2009 pp 29-36(8) Publisher, Springer Publishing Company, by McLaren and Niall
Abstract
Objective: An empirical examination of the scientific status of psychiatry.
Method and Results: Analysis of the publications policy of the major English-language psychiatric journals shows that no journal meets the minimum criteria for a scientific publishing policy.
Conclusion: Psychiatry lacks the fundamental elements of any field claiming to be a science. Furthermore, its present policies are likely to inhibit scientific development of models of mental disorder rather than facilitate them. The psychiatric publishing industry is in urgent need of radical reform.
We told you so.
