Morrissey cited in psychology journal

An aonymous person writes:

Morrissey is quoted in the latest issue of Clinical Psychology Review (Volume 21, Number 2) in an article titled "Why Does Schizophrenia Develop in Late Adolescence?" by Brit authors Chris Harrop & Peter Trower (p.241 of the issue). One section is called "Depression and Loss: 'Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now'." In another section called "Mentoring and Seeking New Gods" there is a block quote of "There is a Light That Never Goes Out"!! Morrissey has 2 entries in the reference list :-) Any halfway respectable library should carry this journal; check it out!

      i asked some friends with access to the university of california library search engine to look up the mentioned articles. they looked up using the authors' name and didn't find such articles. and the university of california is a quite comprehensible resource - serving all nine (soon to be ten) university of california campuses.

      i was thinking that these articles might be in an overseas periodical that hasn't hit the shores of the united states. and i'm not sure on the extent which the global psychology community is conjoined, so it's quite possible that the articles exist somewhere in the world.

      You might find this bizarre, but I wrote the article! I was just vanity searching on it, and found this debate! Clinical Psychology Review is a good journal, but for some reason it doesn't seem to have been included in the indexings for 6 months, hence the confusion (I'm a bit pissed off because this glitch means my paper hasn't had the audience I would like.)
      Anyway, I'm a big Mozzer fan of old, and his songs illustrate really perfectly the messed-up adolescent mind that we can all relate to (well, I can anyway). There are more quotes in the paper - another section is called "Still ill?" which no one has noticed yet. I thought you might be interested to know I originally referenced the quotes as "Smiths, 1986") as if they were some academic author, and 3 reviewers didn't notice. At the very last stage the copywriter noticed and made a fuss, so we had to change it (at some expense) to the convoluted bollocks in the paper now.
      Small things, I know,...
