Hi, This is Dr. D.

I have reviewed your articles and have these comments that follow. I think that the article, The Mask of Sanity, is the best. Acting out—this would be a stretch because it is rather a colloquialism for a group of behaviors. The term isn’t really grounded in history of psychology. Consequently, I recommend against it. Antisocial personality disorder—rather recent, only being named in the DSM-IV. I would recommend against it as being not “rich” enough in historical relevance to psychology. Investigative psychology—very new, unless you can relate it back to early forensic psychology (early 19th century). The Mask of Sanity—would be very interesting and old enough to have some resources that might relate to it. Credible witness—this is more of a legal term rather than a psychological term. So, I recommend against it. Please let me know if you have any questions! WebFlower1 (talk) 01:10, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

Thank you. I will plan on the Mask of Sanity page. I have listed the 3 references I will be reading and reviewing.
