To examine the doctrine of reductionism in psychiatry.
A selective review of the literature.
Two arguments offered in support of reduction in psychiatry are presented and found to be unsatisfactory. An argument supporting skepticism about reduction is described.
Currently, there is little reason to think that any significant portion of psychiatric theory will be reduced to neuroscience or genetics.
探讨精神病学中的还原论学说。
对文献进行选择性综述。
提出了支持精神病学还原论的两个论点，但发现并不令人满意。描述了一个支持对还原论持怀疑态度的论点。
目前，几乎没有理由认为精神病学理论的任何重要部分会被还原为神经科学或遗传学。
