Re:Student Researchers

The same journal published my response to McNally. Citation: Greenwald, R. (1999). The power of suggestion: Comment on EMDR and Mesmerism: A comparative historical analysis. Journal of Anxiety Disorders, 13, 611-615. Abstract below.

He also responded to my comment. His writing is much more clever than mine, but somewhere in there it's worth trying to find some content too.

This response to McNally challenges the notion that scientific controversy should be waged with smear tactics. McNally's anti-EMDR conclusions are contested as premature and based on red herrings, selective neglect of the literature, and erroneous application of scientific principles. The importance of treatment fidelity is highlighted as a way of distinguishing between EMDR studies of widely varying quality.
