Mailbase is an electronic information service which allows
groups to manage their own discussion topics (Mailbase lists)
and associated files.

The Mailbase service is run as part of the JANET (Joint
Academic NETwork) Networked Information Services Project
(NISP) based at the University of Newcastle-upon-Tyne in the
United Kingdom.

InterPsych is a non-profit making, voluntary organization,
established on Mailbase with the aim of promoting international
scholarly collaboration on inter-disciplinary research efforts in the
field of psychopathology.

The network has over 1000 members throughout the world,
including many leading academics, research scientists, and clinical
practitioners.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
InterPsych has the following structure:

psychiatry-superlist (Superlist) [CLOSED]

This list exists to co-ordinate sub-lists dealing with psychiatry
and abnormal psychology. It is intended to be used infrequently

             psychiatry

Many research findings and viewpoints in psychiatry are
controversial, leaving a gulf between those pursuing radically
different approaches to mental illness. This forum will act as a
bridge between those taking a biomedical approach and those
taking a psychodynamic, existential or beahaviourist approach.

InterPsych exists to provide a forum for scholarly and clinical
discussion of all aspects of psychopathy. Individuals doing
research, scholarship, or clinical work within this domain,
broadly construed, are welcome. Faculty, graduate students,
and undergraduate researchers are especially invited.

The motto of InterPsych is 'There is someone wiser than
any of us, and that is all of us.' Our hope is that, at the least,
this forum will be entertaining and informative; at most,
it may be a breeding ground for conceptual and theoretical
innovation , and for establishment of cross-site, inter-
disciplinary, empirical collaboration.
