All crimes are alleged. Measuring the Impact of Media Exposure and Hospital Treatment on Patients Alleging Satanic Ritual Abuse by Frank Leavitt, Ph.D. From Treating Abuse Today 8(4), July/Aug 1998, pp. 28-29. Quotes from the article: "This study provides evidence that clients who report SRA exhibit a set of associations to SRA-related words that cannot be explained by exposure to the popular media or from inpatient treatment." "Reports of ... (SRA) often come to clinical attention based on testimony of patients about events remembered from childhood (Hill & Goodwin, 1989; Young, Sachs, Braun, & Watkins, l991). These memories, ...contain intriguing similarities suggesting a special information base... similarity of detail and recurrence of patterns in patient accounts often serve to weigh these accounts in favor of personal experience...patients making the allegations come from vastly distant geographic regions, yet share an unique knowledge base, ... adds to the sense of credibility (Van Benschoten, 1990; Young, Sachs, Braun & Watkins, 1991)." "individuals in the SRA group with low media exposure produced a greater number of satanic associations than did individuals reporting high media exposure to satanic ritual abuse content." from http://idealist.com/tat/leavitt.shtml The site J.J.
