Should Teenagers Work? - Steinberg et al. (1982)

The video discusses 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest' by Ken Keesey, highlighting its critique of behaviorism. It explores John Watson's views on behavioral psychology and the criticisms they faced. The video then delves into the Rosenhan experiment, where pseudo patients were admitted to psychiatric hospitals to test the validity of psychiatric diagnoses. The study revealed issues with psychiatric labeling and the influence of social environments on perceptions of sanity. The video concludes with a call to engage with the channel for more psychological insights.

In what ways did the pseudo patients' experiences challenge the perceptions of sanity in psychiatric settings?

What implications did Rosenhan's findings have on the psychiatric profession and the concept of labeling theory?
