Title should mention this was in 1950. We are not talking about new work.
Like others have mentioned, you don't need to prove this today. But back then was different.
It still took till 1973 to get the diagnosis removed from the official psychology handbook, per the article.
Can someone prove that religion isn't a psychosis?
How can we prove that the psychologists doing the proving were not suffering mental illness.
Is there such a thing as a Colorado Psychologist, are they different somehow to your normal run of the mill psychologist.
what is proving you may ask, it is the process whereby a bread dough develops, through a chemical reaction and rises to a state where you can chuck it in the oven.
