If we surveyed people who have made multiple trips to a psychic and asked them how good their psychic is, how much they trust and believe in their psychic, and how satisfied they are with the psychic services, I'll bet that the majority of them would give their psychics uniformly high marks. There is a self-selection bias going on here. Or a more personal example, I'm sure that would rate any workshop given by Michael Kozak on the treatment of OCD with exposure and ritual prevention (Ex/RP) extremely high marks, even if Michael was having the worst day of his life. Why? Because I regularly treat patients with OCD using Ex/RP. By contrast, I'm equally sure I would have hard time just sitting through a lecture, let alone a workshop, that was promoting Thought-Field Therapy (TFT). By the same token, however, someone who is attracted to TFT probably would probably hate one of Michael's workshops. They'd likely be bored stiff with the emphasis on research, they'd feel confined by the rigor of the protocol, and they just might be grossed out or horrified by some suggestions that would be made regarding the kind of things that we routinely have patients do.
