> The psychologists think this has something to do with child psychology and have written 10,000 pages on it.

If you mean that 10000 pages in total in 10-page papers, you have read the literature, and become the hero child psychology needs by writing a paper refuting this.

On the other hand, if you did not read the literature wider, how do you know that you are first to do so, or that the misconception is even shared by other than the authors of those papers. Of course, the implicit assumption in all this is that psychologists are stupid.
