Aversion therapy has had almost a century of use, during which it has proven itself remarkably ineffectve. Although, this article is remarkably in need of cleanup. -Seth Mahoney 21:23, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cleanup

I'm adding the cleanup tag for the following reasons:

1. The article doesn't go into much detail on what aversion therapy is, how it is supposed to work, what methods are used, etc.
2. "One patient said of aversion therapy" - what patient? Who said this? Where is it documented?

[edit] Trivia

Don't forget the Simpsons episode "No Disgrace Like Home" (the one where they all go to group therapy and shock each other) - the therapist specfically refers to aversion therapy while introducing the procedure.--4.244.27.33 21:59, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
