I suspect therapy methods work better the more you believe in and trust them. This means there's something harmful about studying how well therapy methods work and publicizing that information, which is that they can cause the methods to work less well.

Replying to @QiaochuYuan @Meaningness
In general, I think one bridge from rationality to meta-rationality is doing the two following things: 1. Notice when epistemic rationality diverges from instrumental rationality (like in this case). 2. Take understanding your internal qualia as seriously as the external word.
