Fictional Media Hypothesis: An Explanation of the Outcomes Paradox and Victor Tausk's Influencing Machine

Authors/Creators

Description

One would expect outcomes to improve with access to biomedical treatment, however this is not the case and outcomes are much better in thirld world countries. By using empirical evidence from neurodevelopmental studies about technology and psychosis outcomes, Victor Tausks observation that most patients experience a "delusion" that they are being effected by an outside force,  as well as anthropological evidence from literature, I hypothesize an explanation for this outcomes paradox.
