Hi everyone: I'm looking for some references on the psychological effects of various cult activities. This would include indoctrination into cults, the role of persuasion and groupthink, the psychological effects of cult involvement and deprogramming, etc. This could also include religious organizations that use various forms of manipulation or persuasion to influence people or manipulate behavior. I'm not too familiar with this area and am hoping some of my other clinical colleagues or my social colleagues might have some suggestions for me. I'm looking for empirical articles as well as textbooks that could be used.
Thanks in advance! Rod ______________________________________________ Roderick D.
