Psychotherapeutic Encounters: Masculine Ideals of Gender and the Construction of Hysteria in Nineteenth and Early
AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Brent W. Misso for the degree of Master of Science in General Science presented on May 10, 1996. Title: Psychotherapeutic Encounters: Masculine Ideals of Gender and the Construction of Hysteria in Nineteenth and Early Twentieth-Century America. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: Robert Nye Early nineteenth-century America witnessed social change which significantly altered the structure of human relationships. Out of this transformation came new configurations of gender and sexuality which colored relations between the sexes well into the twentieth century. But these gender prescriptions did not merely serve to pattern male/female interactions, they informed the Victorian America male self-concept as well. As this study will demonstrate, men born and raised in the middle of the nineteenth century were bombarded with a masculine ethos which would permeate their personal and professional lives. This study focuses particularly upon men who entered the medical profession. More specifically, this is an investigation of those practitioners who took up psychotherapy in the course of conducting their medical practice. Overall, the thesis will show that gender roles did indeed influence medical professionals in the investigation and treatment of hysteria in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. The first chapter is an overview of the issues to be addressed in the thesis. The formal study begins in the second chapter with an examination of the construction of gender roles in nineteenth-century America. The third chapter summarizes the development of the professions and the subsequent ascent of medicine. The process of professionalization created a reciprocal relationship between medical science and the broader culture by which the medical practitioners of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century achieved an unprecedented status. -
Psychiatric Progress and the Assumption of Diagnostic Discrimination
This is a preprint for Philosophy of Science – please get in touch first should you want to cite it. Psychiatric Progress and The Assumption of Diagnostic Discrimination Kathryn Tabb Abstract: The failure of psychiatry to validate its diagnostic constructs is often attributed to the prioritizing of reliability over validity in the structure and content of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). Here I argue that in fact what has retarded biomedical approaches to psychopathology is unwarranted optimism about diagnostic discrimination: the assumption that our diagnostic tests group patients together in ways that allow for relevant facts about mental disorder to be discovered. I consider the Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) framework as a new paradigm for classifying objects of psychiatric research that solves some of the challenges brought on by this assumption. 1. Introduction The architects of the third edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (1980), a task force of the American Psychiatric Association (APA), are often held to have sacrificed validity for reliability in constructing the manual’s categories (Sadler, Hulgus, and Agich 1994; Kendell and Jablensky 2003; Andreasen 2007). According to this view, the DSM went wrong when it adopted an operationalist stance focusing on atheoretical observational criteria, an ecumenical approach that made it easier to apply diagnoses consistently across practitioners and contexts. Without an understanding of etiology, the argument continues, the real contours of psychopathology have not been demarcated, and psychiatry has not been able to identify disease entities akin to those in the rest of medicine (Murphy 2006). This narrative implies that psychiatrists incorporated the operationalism of the DSM into their research methodology, and were accordingly inhibited or uninterested in the pursuit of causal explanations. -

Abstract The diagnostic revolution that culminated in the third edition of the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (1980) began with the publication in 1972 of the Feighner criteria, a set of rules for the identification of 16 disorders. While Feighner et al. claim that their diagnostic categories rest on solid data, the fact is that one was soon to be removed by the APA from its classification of mental disorders: homosexuality. However, the anomaly of an extinct category in a list of supposedly validated diagnostic criteria never became a point of discussion, quite as if the topic were unmentionable. It was in fact even more of an embarrassment than either side in the homosexuality debate seems to have realized at the time. -

For many decades, the mentally ill had been warehoused in large sanitaria far from city centers, at least until the seizure therapies, electroshock and insulin coma, were introduced in the 1930s +slowing the growth of mental hospital populations from the peak in 1955 at 560,000 patient beds in the United States. The efficacy and the mystery of these treatments, inducing grand mal seizures, became my lifelong challenge. The treatment methods, however, were highly controversial in the public and within the profession. For my interest I was often berated and have thought that a less hostile life might have been preferred. -
George Winokur, 1925-1996
ELSEVIER IN MEMORIAM George Winokur, 1925-1996 George Winokur was a man with twinkling eyes, a pug nacious persistence, and a lively intellect. For more than two and a half decades, hallways at the University of Iowa Psychiatric Hospital echoed with the laughter that he produced after scoring an intellectual point on a col league or cracking a joke. George was a department chairman who kept an open door at all times and who was prone to sally forth for a discussion if visitors were lacking. He was a gregarious and amiable man who was adored by several generations of residents whom he trained and friends and colleagues throughout the U.S. and throughout the world. George's career began with an undergraduate de gree from Johns Hopkins in 1944 and an M.D. degree from the University of Maryland in 1947. He completed residencies at the Seaton Institute in Baltimore and sub sequently at Washington University. While he was at this latter institution, his career assumed the style and shape that it would have for the remainder of his life. Washington University in the 1950's was a bastion of rebellion against the predominantly psychoanalytic or psychodynamic movement that was sweeping across the U.S. in the post-war era, led by midwestem col leagues such as the Menningers in Topeka. "Wash U" rebels such as Eli Robins, Sam Guze, and George Wi nokur banded together in order to develop and defend empirical and biological approaches. Although few people are aware of it, George com pleted a considerable body of early work exploring top ics such as sexual and anxiety disorders and the gal vanic skin response.
