    I think that psychologists have fallen down on the job as we all know that psychology is the study of the mind but there has not being much done when it comes to psychological mind disorders. Autism was once considered due to a psychological factor back in the 1940s but there was never any research done on it and the only research paper was by a doctor who said it was genetic when his son got Autism because he knew that they did not do anything psychologically to cause it; but we did not know much about mind development at that time and even the theories on unconscious, subconscious and conscious development were just starting based on S. Freud work and other. Ver know more today but still there has not being any research on psychological development until I did some and now even have a new theory on mind and brain development. Basically psychology has ignore mind and brain development and looking for a psychological cause for the last 75 years or so. They have ignore these Disorders in children and h the obvious cause of SIDS is as plain as the simple Fight or flight reaction but it is being ignored. How can anyone say that psychology is advancing when they ignore a simple thing in infants that obviously is the only sudden trigger for SIDS. I think that there is great need for psychology and psychologists to consider that as the trigger of SIDS and thus figure out and or evaluate inappropriate sensory stimulations as the cause of all of these Disorders.
