Abstract
To the Editor: Dr. Faller misunderstands the point of my article: the effects of junk science on the field of social work. My purpose was never to convince readers about the existence of junk science, which has been done quite effectively by others, but to focus on how it harms perceptions of the field and our perceptions of clients. Furthermore, because the article analyzes social policy, it draws on a range of information sources, selected not because they meet social-work standards of significance, but because they reflect either the information sources used by the public or those frequently used in court, which constitute legal fact.
