I thought Psychiatry and studies with regard to psychiatry and psychology had to be transparent. I thought it was because of a few ’scary’ studies in Psychology done years back that the whole ‘transparency’ thing really became an ethical issue and why all research (at least at Universities) requires a brief training on ethics in disclosure to study participants.

I thought paitients had a right to their records, diagnosis, and methods used to reach the diagnosis (how else can they get a 2nd opinon?). If a person is mentally not capable for this responsibility then the responsibility would fall with their guardian.

No, I didn’t read the full article– I’d rather listen to Didly esplain it to me.
