Mr. Farrell and the refutability of psychoanalysis
Inquiry: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Philosophy 7 (1-4):80 – 98 (1964)
Abstract
Mr. B. A. Farrell has argued that psychoanalysis is refutable, without clarifying different senses of 'refutable'. Once this clarification is done and the relevant literature examined, however, it is seen that psychoanalysis is not refutable in several important senses of 'refutable', although it is refutable in a sense that is quite uninterestingMy notes
