The Syndrome of the Wrist Cutter
Abstract
Many hospitals are experiencing an influx of patients who have made several suicide attempts through wrist slashing. A study was undertaken to learn the possible causes of such behavior. It suggested that the wrist slashers have a common behavior pattern stemming from early maternal deprivation and imbedded in inability to give and receive meaningful verbal communications. Therapy is directed at fostering more mature methods of giving and receiving love.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
