As a psychologist, I am quite familiar with this type of agenda-driven "research". Basically you take a large phenomenon (e.g., the psychological abuse that everyone has to deal with in life), cut a little piece of it out and attach it to your favorite oppressed group.

VIOLA! You have discovered a new phenomenon that explains why the members of the oppressed group need changes in social policy and increased government funding to improve their lot in life.

To call it intellectually dishonest, it to give the researchers credit for scientific intellect they do not possess. They are so blinded by their moral vanity that they lack the ability to think in an objective manner.

My problem is when this stuff is cited in court cases?! It is good to know that at least one medical professional has a sceptical eye.
