The field of cults and their relation to psychological and psychiatric disorder is reft with rhetoric and opinion. There has been a particular dearth of documentation and substantiated data supporting psychiatric opinion. As a result of considerable research, clinical work, and an extensive literature review, certain conclusions or strongly suggested positions are enunciated. An attempt is made to substantiate each of the ten assertions based on existing data, in the hope that they will clarify the muddy existing data, area, make clinical positions and interventions more soundly based, and inspire debate and heuristic efforts.
邪教领域及其与心理和精神疾病的关系充斥着言辞和观点。尤其缺乏支持精神病学观点的文献记录和实证数据。经过大量研究、临床工作以及广泛的文献综述，得出了某些结论或强烈建议的立场。我们试图依据现有数据对这十条论断逐一进行论证，以期能厘清目前混乱的数据领域，使临床立场和干预措施有更坚实的依据，并激发辩论和探索性的研究工作。
