认为关于科学和政治之间关系的传统和流行的信念导致许多关于精神疾病诊断和统计手册（DSM-III）的交流陷入了双重困境，其中对DSM-III的政治方面的否认往往有助于肯定被否认的内容。DSM-III是通过科学和政治相互排斥的概念镜头来检查的。因此，任何提到DSM-III的政治维度都可能被自动视为对分类学科学完整性的攻击。建议科学和政治的整体方面应该得到承认，并且应该避免对DSM-III的科学和政治维度进行自我挫败的二分推理。结论是，DSM-III既是生产科学知识的工具，也是修辞、社会组织和权力分配的工具。它可以用一种超越二分法的方式来看待。（50 ref）（PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA，版权所有）
Argues that traditional and prevalent beliefs about the relationship between science and politics cause many communications about the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-III) to become mired in double-talk, in which disavowal of DSM-III's political aspects often serves to affirm that which is being denied. The DSM-III is examined through a conceptual lens in which science and politics are mutually exclusive. Consequently, any mention of the political dimensions of DSM-III may be automatically perceived as an attack on the scientific integrity of the taxonomy. It is suggested that integral aspects of science and politics should be acknowledged, and self-defeating dichotomous reasoning about DSM-III's scientific and political dimensions should be avoided. It is concluded that the DSM-III is both a tool for the production of scientific knowledge and an instrument of rhetoric, social organization, and power distribution. It can be viewed in a way that transcends dichotomy.(50 ref)(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
