Manipulation - Mind Control - A Definition
Mind control (also referred to as brainwashing, coercive persuasion, and thought reformLangone, Michael, Cults & Mind Control, International Cultic Studies Association) refers to a broad range of psychological tactics thought to subvert an individual's control of his or her own thinking, behavior, emotions, or decision making. Brainwashing and mind control theories originally developed to explain how totalitarian regimes were thought to indoctrinate prisoners of war through propaganda and torture techniques. These theories were later expanded or modified to explain a wider range of phenomena,especially conversions to new religious movements (NRMs). Since their application to NRMs, mind control theories have been especially controversial within scientific and legal contexts, and currently most social scientists agree with the stances taken by the American Psychological Association and American Sociological Association, which have found no scientific merit in them.
