This recently-published book may have a bearing on the debates over claims of
repressed memory due to sexual molestation: Susan A. Clancy,
The Trauma Myth: The Truth About the Sexual Abuse of Children--and its Aftermath (Basic Books, Jan. 5, 2010). Susan Clancy is an experimental psychologist who works or worked at Harvard University. See this
Wikipedia squib.
I just caught the very tail end of her interview on WNYC's Leonard Lopate show. There are already -- at 1:10 p.m., less than an hour after the interview --, there are already 41 comments about the Clancy interview at the WNYC web site.

A new blurb on the Leonard Lopate page of the WNYC web site says of the book: "In her controversial new book The Trauma Myth: The Truth about the Sexual Abuse of Children—and Its Aftermath she explains that survivors are often victimized not only by their abusers but also by the industry dedicated to helping them."
The Clancy interview is now available on the same web page: http://www.wnyc.org/shows/lopate/episodes/2010/02/18/segments/150326
