Ground Lost: The False Memory/Recovered Memory Therapy Debate
by Alan W. Scheflin
Psychiatric Times  November 1999  Vol. XVI  Issue 11

"Does repressed memory exist? Although courts and legislatures use the term
repressed memory, the proper term is dissociative amnesia. This is the
definition that appears in the DSM-IV, section 300.12: "Dissociative amnesia
is characterized by an inability to recall important personal information,
usually of a traumatic or stressful nature, that is too extensive to be
explained by ordinary forgetfulness."

The appearance in the DSM-IV indicates that the concept of repressed memory
is generally accepted in the relevant scientific community. This satisfies
courts following the Frye v United States, 293 F.1013 (1923) or Daubert v
Merrell Dow Pharmaceutical, 113 S. Ct. 2786 (1993) rules regarding the
admissibility of scientific testimony into evidence in court."

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are not allowed. Substance—not soap-boxing!  These are sordid matters
and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, misdirections and outright
frauds—is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.

Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
