Talk:PACE trial

I think this page needs a little more narrative (paragraphs rather than bullets). Most notably, it's missing a section about what the trial actually says. It's nearly all controversy and statements against. There is also no information about how the PACE trial authors and Simon Wessely have defended the work or what their position and point of view are. It's important to include to understand the whole picture. --JenB (talk) 12:11, 13 February 2016 (PST)

We should include links to the SMC "expert opinions" for each of the papers.Olliec (talk) 04:38, 29 November 2015 (PST)

We should include a link to a full copy (hosted where?) of the PACE "Manual for Therapists" (are there separate manuals for CBT/GET?). PACE web site copies deleted. Olliec (talk) 04:38, 29 November 2015 (PST)

And perhaps include notable quotes from the papers/manuals like this https://twitter.com/batteredoldbook/status/670579432483090433/photo/1 Olliec (talk) 04:38, 29 November 2015 (PST)

We should also add notable criticisms from Malcolm Hooper, not sure yet where to find them. Olliec (talk) 04:39, 6 December 2015 (PST)
