| Title: |
THE COMMUNICATIONAL FACTORS UNDERLYING THE MENTAL DISORDERS |
| Lead Author: |
LaMuth, John E |
| Abstract: |
In light of an overall communicational model for mental illness, the principles of the Scientific Method are necessarily employed: namely, (1) propose a hypothesis, (2) make predictions from that hypothesis, and (3) test the accuracy of the predictions within an experimental setting. According to Step (1), the major hypothesis has initially been established; namely, mental illness represents the transitional interplay of the double bind and counter double bind maneuvers in relation to the vices of excess. According to this radical interpretation, mental illness represents a concerted communicational process to transition into the realm of excess. ***(no license is required for this brief three sentence abstract/excerpt) |
