That was me, not JonathanR.
The source should be listed in the book I cited, "House of Cards". I
don't remember the source's name, but I do remember that a source was
given in standard bibliographic format.
MITECS (The MIT Encyclopedia of the Cognitive Sciences) contains a
passing reference to "markedly inconclusive" experiments, citing:
Eysenck, H. and G. Wilson, Eds (1973). _The Experimental Study of
Freudian Theories_. London: Methuen. However, I don't think that was
the source I remember.
