Alien Abduction: A Clinically Oriented Review from Hynek Typologies to a Multifactorial Diagnostic Framework
To the point
Alien abduction reports are best understood as subjective, dissociative experiences rooted in neurobiological and psychosocial factors, not proven extraterrestrial contact, with historical figures Hynek, Vallée, Naisbitt, Adamski, Manzano, and Meier cited but producing no uncontested evidence, and clinical practice recommending a multifactorial DSM-5 framework and psychotherapy rather than hypnotic or suggestive techniques.
