Pschotherapeutic methods between scientific foundation and everyday knowledge

Perrez, Meinrad

In: New Ideas in Psychology, 1989, vol. 2, no. 7, p. 133-145

Several hundred psychotherapeutic methods are actually in use. The question is formulated how to distinguish scientifically founded methods from those that are not scientifically founded.

The relations of technological and nomological knowledge are discussed and minimal criteria for the...

Gender Discrimination under EU and ECHR Law : Never Shall the Twain Meet?

The effects of frequency and predictability on eye fixations in reading: An evaluation of the E-Z Reader model

Sparrow, Laurent ; Miellet, Sebastien ; Coello, Yann

In: Behavioral and Brain Sciences

We tested whether the E-Z Reader model can be generalised to French language. The simulation showed that the model can account for the frequency effect. The predictability effect is moreover accurate for words skipping but not for fixation times. We think that this model is psychologically plausible for certain aspects of reading and we used it to evaluate the performance of dyslexic readers.

They interpret this as evidence against the validity of the capital asset pricing model and they conclude that the beta is not a good measure of risk. This paper claims that usual tests do not leave much opportunity for beta to appear as a useful variable capable of explaining...
