Talk:Martha Mitchell effect
I seem to vaguely recall another famous case: a U.S. naval officer who insisted that he was being followed everywhere by Israeli secret service agents was committed to a military psychiatric hospital, where he committed suicide. Later, his claims were found to have been real. Timeframe: 1960s or 70s? Can anyone pin this one down? -- The Anome 10:07, 15 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- An article by Mayerhoff et al (link to PubMed entry) is a similar case, but I've not yet tracked down the original so don't know the details yet. - Vaughan 10:50, 16 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Is it worthwhile to point out similarities between this and the Cassandra Syndrome? -R. fiend 20:28, 27 Nov 2004 (UTC)
I'll change if not dissuaded
Any patient, they explain, can be misdiagnosed by clinicians, even one with a history of paranoid delusions.
It appears this should read "especially one with a history of paranoid delusions". Why am I wrong? --Gtg207u (talk) 21:42, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Removed original research tag
I've removed the OR tag from the page as it's just a description of what's already written in the published, referenced sources. Full disclosure: I am the co-author on one of the papers, but I wasn't the editor who added it as a reference to this page. - Vaughan (talk) 15:20, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
At the beginning of the Discussion section, "According to Bell et. al,", is unsourced. What is the citation here? Isn't this frowned upon (unsourced citations could be bogus). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.201.21.84 (talk) 18:38, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
