From _Opening Skinner's Box_, Lauren Slater:
He [Rosenhan] said in the next three months he would send an undisclosed number of pseudopatients to this particular hospital, and the staff were to judge, in a sort of experimental reversal, not who was insane, but who was sane. One month passed. Two months passed. At the end of the three months the hospital staff reported to Rosenhan that they had detected with a high degree of confidence forty-one of of Rosenhan's pseudopatients. Rosenhan had, in fact, sent none."
Timeframe: circa 1975.
