  • Interpreting the Goldwater Rule
    ANALYSIS AND COMMENTARY SPECIAL SECTION: THE GOLDWATER RULE Interpreting the Goldwater Rule John Martin-Joy, MD Section 7.3 of the Principles of Medical Ethics With Annotations Especially Applicable to Psychiatry (the so-called Goldwater Rule) provides guidance on the ethics of making psychiatric comments about public figures who have not been interviewed and have not given consent. I argue that the wording of Section 7.3 is ambiguous, and I document disagreement over the scope of the rule and consider the implications of this disagreement. If one reads Section 7.3 narrowly, as banning media comments without interview and consent, but allowing such comments in institutional settings, then the general principle articulated in the text and often repeated in the media begins to appear insubstantial. If one reads Section 7.3 broadly, then the work of psychiatrists in the courts, in government agencies such as the Central Intelligence Agency, in insurance companies, and in the academy becomes ethically problematic. I trace the American Psychiatric Association’s own interpretation of Section 7.3 and conclude that the APA has advocated a narrow reading. I assert the need for an integrated theory of psychiatric ethics for settings where interview and consent are absent. Such a theory, articulating why comments in institutional settings are ethical, but comments to media are not, may reduce public confusion and provide a basis for revising Section 7.3.

  • Reflections on the Goldwater Rule
    ANALYSIS AND COMMENTARY SPECIAL SECTION: THE GOLDWATER RULE Reflections on the Goldwater Rule Paul S. Appelbaum, MD The APA’s Goldwater Rule, precluding psychiatrists from rendering opinions to the media about public figures whom they have not examined, has often engendered controversy. Here, I consider the justifications for the rule, how well they stand up to criticism, and the extent, if any, to which modifications might be called for. Although embarrassment to the profession is often cited as the basis for the Rule, it reflects more substantive concerns, including the risk of harm to living persons and discouraging persons in need of treatment from seeking psychiatric attention. The most potent criticisms of the Rule are that it discourages public education about mental illness and its effects and precludes legitimate scholarly endeavors by psychiatrists studying foreign leaders, historical figures, and others. However, there are many ways of providing education about mental illness without violating the Rule, and read properly, it should not prevent legitimate historical investigation, though some clarification of the Rule on this point might be helpful. Even psychiatrists who seek to aid policymakers in dealing with international or domestic threats should not find that the Rule interferes with their efforts. On balance, the Goldwater Rule continues to be an important underpinning of ethical behavior by psychiatrists.

  • Goldwater Rule’ and Comment on Trump’S Mental Health
    Psychiatry Group Tells Members They Can Ignore ‘Goldwater Rule’ and Comment on Trump’s Mental Health By Sharon Begley Region: USA Global Research, July 26, 2017 Theme: Law and Justice, Police State & STAT 25 July 2017 Civil Rights Featured image: Former US Senator Barry Goldwater (Source: NPR) A leading psychiatry group has told its members they should not feel bound by a longstanding rule against commenting publicly on the mental state of public figures —even the president. The statement, an email this month from the executive committee of the American Psychoanalytic Association to its 3,500 members, represents the first significant crack in the profession’s decades-old united front aimed at preventing experts from discussing the psychiatric aspects of politicians’ behavior. It will likely make many of its members feel more comfortable speaking openly about President Trump’s mental health. The impetus for the email was “belief in the value of psychoanalytic knowledge in explaining human behavior,” said psychoanalytic association past presidentDr. Prudence Gourguechon, a psychiatrist in Chicago. “We don’t want to prohibit our members from using their knowledge responsibly.” That responsibility is especially great today, she told STAT, “since Trump’s behavior is so different from anything we’ve seen before” in a commander in chief. An increasing number of psychologists and psychiatrists have denounced the restriction as a “gag rule” and flouted it, with some arguing they have a “duty to warn” the public about what they see as Trump’s narcissism, impulsivity, poor attention span, paranoia, and other traits that, they believe, impair his ability to lead.

    Cambridge University Press 978-1-108-48658-3 — Diagnosing from a Distance John Martin-Joy Frontmatter More Information DIAGNOSING FROM A DISTANCE Ever since the rise of Adolf Hitler, mental health professionals have sought to use their knowledge of human psychology to understand – and to intervene in – political developments. Psychiatrists have commented, sometimes brashly, on the mental health of public figures from Barry Goldwater to Donald Trump. But is the practice ethical? While the American Psychiatric Association prohibits psychiatric comment on public figures under its “Goldwater Rule,” others disagree. Diagnosing from a Distance is the first in-depth exploration of this controversy. Making extensive use of archival sources and original interviews, John Martin-Joy reconstructs the historical debates between psychiatrists, journalists, and politicians in an era when libel law and professional standards have undergone dramatic change. Charting the Goldwater Rule’s crucial role in the current furor over Trump’s fitness for office, Martin-Joy assesses the Rule’s impact and offers a more liberal alternative. This remarkable book will change the way we think about psychiatric ethics and public life.

  • An Ethical Dilemma
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-108-48658-3 — Diagnosing from a Distance John Martin-Joy Excerpt More Information INTRODUCTION An Ethical Dilemma T he election of donald trump in 2016 raised profound ethical questions for many psychiatrists. Is it ethical to diagnose a public figure without examining him or her? If so, why? If not, why not? Are there compelling reasons for a psychiatrist to comment on a president’s mental health if nuclear warfare or the conduct of an unjust war is at stake? Is the media the right place for such comment? Under what circumstances, and in the name of what higher principles, may a psychiatrist violate the ethical code of her own professional organization? In Diagnosing from a Distance, I explore and reflect on these ethical questions using a historical and philosophical lens. This book is a study of the development of professional ideas in a political context – and ulti- mately an argument about how we might approach the ethics of psychia- tric comment on public figures. HOW DID WE GET HERE? As a psychiatrist myself, and one with a long-standing interest in history, politics, and ethics, I became interested in the question of what a professional owes to the larger society some time after I graduated from my psychiatry residency at the Harvard Longwood psychiatry train- ing program in Boston. During college, I had learned about psycho- analyst Erik Erikson and his efforts in “psychohistory” from a teacher and mentor, psychiatrist Robert Coles. Later, I read and admired Erikson’sinfluential book Young Man Luther (1958).
