Hi Nan. Thanks for letting me point out the reasons that could offend someone! ;-) Here are a few more reasons: statistical error due to low sample size, no long-term follow-up which would show relapses clearly, no-shows are not declared relapses, conditioning to recording environment, only those who would have recovered anyway got more fluent more quickly in therapeutic environment, serious conflict of interest due to studies done by those who invented, use, and spread Lidcombe in terms of money, research grants and prestige, no control group, and so on...
