Hans Jürgen Eysenck (March 4, 1916 – September 4, 1997) was a British psychologist of German origin, best remembered for his work on intelligence and personality, though he worked in a wide range of areas. At the time of his death, Eysenck was the living psychologist most frequently cited in science journals.
Eysenck wrote that Freud "set back the study of [psychology and psychiatry] by something like fifty years or more, mis-diagnosed his patients, fraudulently misrepresented case histories and that "what is true in Freud is not new, and what is new is not true."
