Not an exact science

Into the cuckoo's nest: a fascinating article about a psychology experiment 30 years ago where completely healthy people were committed because they expressed one 'psychotic' symptom (hearing a thud). When repeated recently, the healthy patient was proscribed unnecessary medication.

In no cases, it seems, was the subterfuge detected. Make of this what you will.
