MONTREAL (CP) ~ At the time of his death .

in 1967, Dr. Ewen Cameron was one of the most
widely respected psychiatrists in the world.
Today, his career is the subject of bitter debate
and million-dollar lawsuits. wo,
Director of .Montreal's Allan Memorial
psychiatric hospital for 21 years, he openly
experimented on his patients, subjecting them

to sensory deprivation, electroshock, LSD and |

chemical “sleép" for up to 65 days. ;
Cameron, who described his unorthodox
treatments in more than 130 candid essays in

leading scholarly journals, aroused little public

criticism ‘during his lifetime and the Allan
received substantial Canadian government
funding. - oe ;

~ When it was later revealed that his work was

‘funded by the U.S, Central Intelligence Agency,

hine of his former patients sued.

They allege they had been used as guinea
pigs to test methods of interrogation, behavior
control and brainwashing. So far, only Velma

Orlikow, wife of New Democratic MP David.

Orlikow, has won her case: a $50,000 oul-of-
court settlement.
Even today, Cameron has his supporters.
Doctors L.D. Goldman and K. Arvantanitakis
wrote in the Canadian Journal of Psychiatry
that he pioneered the concept of the day

hospital, where only voluntary patients are’

admitted and where they are not treated as
“wild beasts who need to be caged.”
BETTER CONDITION . .
Dr. Brian Robertson, current director of the
Allan, denies Cameron’s theory of “psychic
driving” had anything to do with brainwashing.

“Dr. Cameron’s intention was that the :

patient's condition be improved.” -

say there was “no doubt that Dr, Cameron and
those who worked. with him, informed their
patienta of the nature of their treatment.”
Cameron” —. considered —_— traditional
psychotherapy aa time-consuming and inef-
fective. After numerous experiments, he
concluded that “psychic driving,” or
repetition, was “an exceedingly (more)
powerful tool”. }
“Tn ordinary Psychoanalysis, he explained,

“the patient tends to move away quite rapidly _

from 4 painful area. By a series of often quite
subtle'moves,. he talks himself out of a par-

‘ticular topic. . .

“In the (psychic) driving situation, however,
he is unable to do so — as the endless repetition
++. confines him to‘continuous . , , concepts.””

In other words, the patient was captive to the
treatment be administered to him by the
psychiatrist. 0 .

WROTE ARTICLES

It Wason a “hot and sticky” day in Montreal
when Cameron discovered the principle of
“psychic driving,” he wrote in an article titled

’ Adventures With Repetition: the Search for its

Possibilities...

“The patient was a blonde and sultry girl
from Bermuda whom I roundly suspected of
incestuous . . . feelings for her father.’
Eventually, she hinted at this, but would not
come out and say it.

“The recorder was on, and with great

‘satisfaction, I played it back to her.”

Still, she would not confirm Cameron's

‘Suspicions. He ran the tape rapidly back and

forth; playing the same few" sentences,

by Cameron, By her actions, he wrote,
confirmed his contention and was ready to start
dealing with her real problems.

Cameron gave another example of ae
statement he used in the “psychic driving of BR
patient named Madeleine. His statement toher
was: “You let your mother and father treat you

like a child... . a,
“Now that you have two children (of your

own), you don’t seem ta be able to manage .

them and keep a good relationship with your
husband. You are drifting apart. You don't go
out together. You have not been able to keep

him interested sexually.”

The statement was repeated 16 hours a day
for a week or more.

Baby babblings recorded

BALTIMORE (AP) — Babies’

sounds,

Infant babblings are recorded on
videotape and will be used to form a
model of speech development being
created by Dr. Rachel Stark and
Jennifer Bond at the John F. Ken-
nedy Institue for Handicapped
Children.

The sounds — such as da” and
“geh” and even “eeeeeeyah" — are
monitored for to pitch, loudness,
roughness and the shape of the in-
fant's mouth because many of the
sounds don’t conform to an alphabet,

“If you use phonetics, you are
forced to choose sounds, which isn’t
what -the child was doing,” Stark
said,

; The researchers hope to obtain the
numbers and types of sounds made
by normal infants to help them
identify and help children who ap-
pear likely to develop speech han-
dicaps, said Stark, the director of the
institute’s Division of Com.

* “We're hoping the measurements
we will generate as a result of the
project, when applied to develop-
mentally disabled children, will

Suggest when intervention should
occur,” she said.

The study involves 36 children
ranging in age from three months to
18months. Stark said each age has its
own developmental level, and while
infants’ native languages may be
different, the sounds appear to be the
same.

Past research shows that some
sounds — notably consonants — seem
to occur in “quantum leaps" at
certain levels, while vowels develop
at a steadier pace, she said,

Stark has fitted a special
laboratery booth with a_ mobile,
‘puppets and crackers. Using a game
of peekaboo, the researchers try to
get the infants to react by trying to
make sounds After a 30-minute
session, the infants are given a break
and then brought back to the booth
for a hearing check.

The tests are part of a three-year
project that began in September with
a $250,000 grant from the National
Institute of Child Health and Human
Development.
