[Against abuse of methodology in psychiatry].
The author argues with methodological requirements of scientific research in psychiatry especially as far as the estimation of the value of new psychotropic drugs is concerned. Periodical withdrawal of the drugs and double blind placebo controlled challenge in endogenous depression and psychosis as well as in pediatric psychiatry and psychogeriatry are considered to be inadmissible. The author warns against the possibility of judicial claim in case of fatal complications in psychiatric patients. The abuse of methodology has been named "methodologization of psychiatry" as compared to the discredited term "politicalization of psychiatry".
