@davidtuller1 @TheLancetPsych David, there were 4 brief comments, one from each of the 4 arms, after end of recruitment.

After the end of recruitment? That's ok then.
I wanted to highlight his knighthood obtained for his work with patients with me/cfs (call it what you want)The title of this thread reminded me of the Chili Peppers. Sir Psycho Wessely, that´s his name...
Can anyone with a Twitter account when he is going to give up the game and apologise to us for all the harm he has done? And then ask him again the next day, and the next day, and so on, ad infiniteum?
Not holding my breath.Well, maybe not now, but once the science is all in our favour, we should make sure he apologises.
And this answers the question of interfering with the patient response how? That they did it in a way that interfered equally across all arms? The point is that they shouldn't have been touting the success of the study to the study participants in any way whatsoever before the study was over . That's basic research protocol and ethics, people. It is particularly egregious because they were using subjective outcome measures, so anything that might influence how the participants answer the questionnaires (such as CBT ) should be avoided at all costs.Simon Wessely (@WesselyS)

I don't understand? Shouldn't I be posting here? BTW, thanks for deleting. Appreciated.If you feel that way, Bob, why are you posting on this thread? It´s about Wessely on Twitter.
