Stephanie Dallam R.N., M.S.N. is a child-protection advocate who uses science to advance her child trauma agenda. Most of Dallam's writings can be dismissed as pseudoscience somewhere in-between the mainstream appeal of David Finkelhor and the extremity Judith Reisman - a known homophobe and revisionist of Alfred Kinsey.
Dallam, who is allied to a victimology-oriented advocacy group known as The Leadership Council, is also said to have worked as "family nurse, practitioner [and] in pediatric intensive care for ten years at the University of Missouri Hospital and Clinics [and as a] nursing instructor at the University of Missouri—Columbia. She has written numerous articles on issues related to the welfare of children".[1]
From the following quote, it becomes apparent that Dallam believes she is engaged in an anti-pedophile science war:
- ""What the pedophiles are looking for is some group of professionals to champion their cause," said Stephanie Dallam, a Leadership Council researcher. "Then they'll come up with a derogatory term to deride anyone who disagrees with them. Their claim will be to objective science, even though their science is sloppy and terrible.""[2]
Rind "Debunking"
She is probably best known as the author of a 2002 paper that attempted to frame the work of Rind et al (also see Research) as advocacy propaganda. What - apart from the numerous misrepresentations - is most surprising about this paper, is that the author felt that she could base a large portion of her critique around what appeared to be a guilt-by-association argument, and then accuse the other of abusing protocols of science for the purpose of non-existent advocacy.
