They were from the Sample Size section of the full protocol and led into their power analyses: I don't really know how these things should be...
Sounds like she's been taken advantage of by quacks. "Rachel and her mother Helen Gordon are speaking out to raise money towards herbal...
So this quote from Sharpe could just mean he's not 100% certain CBT/GET are better than nothing? "Furthermore, I would like to take this...
I don't think that it is reasonable to claim that the project did help individuals achieve their goals. As you say, we cannot know if this is true...
Thanks a lot for that Lucibee. Made me feel even more irritated with Sharpe! "This is demonstrated by the lack of any difference in the more...
Thanks Clare. I think that's an important point, and is why I'm concerned by language like this: "By developing and demonstrating good...

Maybe be of interest that Strudwick has said he was cured of ME by the Lightning Process, and promoted the anti-science harassment stuff about ME...
I know nothing about that individual case, but I know a lot of patients who are so routinely mistreated because of their health that they feel...
Sharpe's always writing about the problems of dualistic yadda-yadda, the complicated way mind and body interact, etc, etc. I expect he's referring...
Also, Sharpe's misleading claims about how 'independent' the Lancet commentary are of interest: [MEDIA] (That's an archived link)
