My thanks to Antonio Puente (1995) for his letter calling attention to Bekhterev Institute and a neglected aspect of Russian neuropsychology. He says, “The question of why this psychometric approach is not known outside the former Soviet Union is an interesting one,” and I agree. Like the Purloined Letter, this secret has been right under the noses of INS members since 1989!
