The goal of this article is to promote clear thinking and clear writing among
students and teachers of psychological science by curbing terminological
misinformation and confusion. To this end, we present a provisional list of 50
commonly used terms in psychology, psychiatry, and allied fields that should be
avoided, or at most used sparingly and with explicit caveats. We provide
corrective information for students, instructors, and researchers regarding these
terms, which we organize for expository purposes into five categories: inaccurate
or misleading terms, frequently misused terms, ambiguous terms, oxymorons, and
pleonasms. For each term, we (a) explain why it is problematic, (b) delineate one
or more examples of its misuse, and (c) when pertinent, offer recommendations for
preferable terms. By being more judicious in their use of terminology,
psychologists and psychiatrists can foster clearer thinking in their students and
the field at large regarding mental phenomena.
