Were you blindfolded?

Interesting piece, Robin! Apropos of Paul Bernhard
Awesome! I love seeing someone be skeptical of those studies. I'd seen a PBS
show about those studies a few weeks ago and thought that it looked
insufficiently controlled for them to make the claims they were making. But, I
wasn't willing to be dismissive because often when they show how psychol
Paul, you are one of the very few that provide the notorious and

the last part where Watson states "I am going beyond my fact and I admit
it, but so have . . " Bet many on this listserv have not even been the

I don't think Lovaas had a stunning ego whatsoever. Someone on this
listserv had mentioned the rather odd fact that the NYT's had delayed
their obituary of Lovaas for three days. I suspect they wanted their

Astounding? Wasn't it John B Watson who said

Hi
Reminds me of the movie "The Boys from Brazil," in which Hitler was
cloned and then extreme efforts taken to reproduce his early
environment. I wonder if Lovaas would also have argued that he could
take any boy at 4 or 5 and turn out a Hitler?
Take care

A bit of hyperbole maybe, but do you think that Hitler's personality was
totally genetically determined?
What makes the statement so astounding?
Hitler (and Stalin, and Mao, et.al.) were human beings, not demons.
There were many reasons why they were what they were; the fact that they were
I just finished reading another obituary for O. Ivar Lovaas, which ended
with this astounding statement:
To the end of his career, Dr. Lovaas was adamant that applied behavior
analysis was supremely useful in childhood interventions of all kinds.
