BEHAVIOUR THERAPYAbstract
Because of the recurrent interest in behaviour therapy and behaviour modification the editors decided to include. a letter from
myself composed in 1963. It is still relevant and has not previously been released in this journal. Behaviour modification techniques in
various forms are regularly used in state hospitals even for psychotic patients. The letter was addressed to the Editor of The
American Journal of Psychiatry and contained in their issue for August, 1963, Vol. 120, No. 2, pp. 194-196.
