WHY WE USE SYMBOLS/ICONS IN OUR LISTS.

Please note:

AFF does NOT maintain a list of "bad" groups or "cults."  We nonjudgmentally list groups on which we have information.

Groups listed, described, or referred to on AFF's Web sites may be mainstream or nonmainstream, controversial or noncontroversial, religious or nonreligious, cult or not cult, harmful or benign.

We encourage inquirers to consider a variety of opinions, negative and positive, so that inquirers can make independent and informed judgments pertinent to their particular concerns.

Views expressed on our Web sites are those of the document's author(s) and are not necessarily shared, endorsed, or recommended by AFF or any of its directors, staff, or advisors.

See:  Definitional Issues Collection; Understanding Groups Collection

Kimiaki Nishida, Ph.D., a social psychologist in Japan, is Associate Professor at the University of Shizuoka and a Director of the Japan Society for Cult Prevention and Recovery. He is a leading Japanese cultic studies scholar and one of the editors of the Japanese Journal of Social Psychology. His studies on psychological manipulation by cults were awarded prizes by several academic societies in Japan. And he has been summoned to some courts for explaining "cult mind control."
