Technical Reports

Technical Reports from the Research Department of The Menninger Clinic document results of ongoing investigations as well as the conceptual foundations of research projects. Some of these Technical Reports serve as initial communications of findings that are ultimately published in journal articles; others represent pilot projects or methodological contributions that are not submitted for formal publication but nevertheless might be of general interest. In any event, the Technical Report series provides a window into the research activities of The Clinic. We welcome inquiries; send us an email if you would like a report.
