Vail

• Psychological services should not be administered to the public (except under strict experimental control) until they have satisfied four minimal criteria:

• The exact nature of the service must be described clearly• The claimed benefits of the service must be stated explicitly• These claimed benefits must be validated scientifically• Possible negative side effects that might outweigh benefits must be ruled out empirically
