An excellent study that was obviously a great deal of work. Thanks for doing it. I think your worksheets with the specific articles and their foibles might be useful to others vetting these distorted studies if posted publicly…
This kind of thing is expected from Dr. Gibbons who has made a career out of testifying and statistic-ifying that SSRIs , Neurontin, Chantix etc. do not have dangerous side effects. And Dr. Kupfer was involved in this NIMH financed commercial project during the DSM-5 Task Forces’ deliberations. In fact, he pushed the agenda to add “cross cutting” dimensions – things like anxiety and depression to the manual, things measured by these peculiar instruments they’re pushing with this product. It’s a case of Dr. Kupfer capitalizing on his role as Task Force Czar. Fortunately, the APA Trustees said “no thanks” to the “cross cutting” dimensions.
