Document Summary
Understand the factors that go into the consideration of whether a psychological condition is. The process of adopting the cultural traits or social patterns of another group. Iatrogenic conditions do not necessarily result from medical errors, such as mistakes made in surgery, or the prescription or dispensing of the wrong therapy, such as a drug.

Basically iatrogenic is resulting from an act of the health care provider or physician unintentionally (mistake) Mcfall"s manifesto: scientific clinical psychology is only legitimate and acceptable form of clinical psych. Some people argue that science doesn"t have all the answers yet, so we have to rely on clinical judgement . this is wrong because science isn"t just a set of answers, it"s a method/approach. First corollary: psychological services shouldn"t be administered to the public until they have met the 4 minimum criteria: 1: exact nature of service must be described clearly.
