Re: efficacy studies

[Bill McCown, Ph.D.]

An alternative interpretation of existing situations that is compatible with
much of what goes on at psychological conventions is that psychology may be
scientific, but psychologists are not necessarily. And not just the
clinicians. Science if by nature self correcting. It may just take much
longer for our erroneous hypotheses to be corrected, due to the nature of
the subject. As a result we tend to cling tenaciously to what we learned in
graduate school.
