Abstract: | Comments on D. L. Johnson's (see record 1989-29564-001) view of schizophrenia as a brain disease and on H. P. Lefley's (see record 1989-29581-001) view that families have been stigmatized for their role in major mental illness. Based on clinical experience, it is argued that families can indeed be psychogenic. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) |
