I'd been waiting for this since yesterday (i.e. since the time you posted a story about this). I kept imagining what the article is going to be about. And now that I've read it, man oh man, I'm completely mind blown AND shocked. I've SO many thoughts swirling through my head rn. I'll come back here when I can make sense of them. But for now, just one question: did therapists intentionally plant false memories in the minds of their clients sometimes?

Planting fake memories shows creating dependency in a client which is highly unethical. I read that Loftus defended some remarkable cases including Ted Bundy by helping the case. Surprising how her work led to unfortunately criminals defending themselves. Does hypnosis help in such cases ?
