Gene Expression: I Hear Voices

Crooked Timber links to this article in the Guardian about faking your way into a mental hospital.

The art of psychiartic diagnosis absent physical data on the brain structure of the patients has many similarities to what we see with IQ studies.

Further the enmity directed at the perpetrator is striking similar to that affored to E.O. Wilson, Arthus Jenson, Charles Murray and Richard Hernstein, et al. Here is an exchange between Dr. Spitzer, the defender of the faith, and the journalist about the welfare of the hoax perpetrator.

Spitzer pauses. "So how is David Rosenhan?" he finally asks.
"Actually, not so good," I say. "He's lost his wife to cancer, his daughter Nina in a car crash. He's had several strokes and is now suffering from a disease they can't quite diagnose. He's paralysed."

That Spitzer doesn't say, or much sound, sorry when he hears this reveals the depths to which Rosenhan's study is still hated in the field, even after 30 years. "That's what you get," he says, "for conducting such an inquiry."

Deserved retribution from on high for challenging authority. Hmmm.

The sanctity of the authority though seems to have been misapplied for the professionals were clearly oblivious to that which was clearly obvious to the patients.

The strange thing was, the other patients seemed to know that Rosenhan was normal, even while the doctors did not. One young man, coming up to Rosenhan in the dayroom, said "You're not crazy. You're a journalist or a professor." Another said, "You're checking up on the hospital."
