I totally forgot to elaborate on that sentence. I meant to say that it's widely understood within the research community and recently graduated psychiatrists. There's still a lot of bad practice, outdated methodology, and general laissez-faire that the field is still shaking off. It's lingering way too long and dissemination of the up-to-date knowledge is much less effective within psychiatry than other areas. This may be due to it not being readily apparent that you're harming the patient compared to say cardiology, but I can't say for sure. The field of mental health is definitely in a sorry state today, at least in the US. A lot of progress is being made in terms of research and knowledge, but it's not as impactful on the practicing community as it should be.
