- Significant Emotional Event (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
The term is attributed in the article to Morris Massey, a creator of training videos. There are no references to establish that the term is used by reputable sources, only a set of external links to several .com sites. Thus there is nothing in the article to establish the notability of the term. Looie496 (talk) 19:34, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Merge to Morris Massey. Marginally notable term, but no need for its own article. -Atmoz (talk) 15:43, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Although the article could be expanded greatly, the article is significant within the psychology community and provides relevant information. Benjamin Dominic (talk) 19:28, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- If the article is significant with the psychology community, surely it would be possible to find a source that says so. In spite of the new sources, I still don't see any that establishes notability. Looie496 (talk) 19:49, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I admit I am constantly puzzled by the apparent lack of cross-over between the psychological and business communities. The articles on hugely best-selling business books such as Who Moved My Cheese? and Peter Principle contain no psychological analysis at all. Similarly, Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory and Myers-Briggs Type Indicator don't say anything about their use in business (I originally took both as a nuclear engineer at public utilities). Here we have a psychological trauma consequence as seen from its applicability to business - yet despite its fairly broad viewing (I saw The Massey Triad as an engineer also) there are few Google hits. Should it be merged into psychological trauma or into Morris Massey, or kept separate and wikilinked to both? Simesa (talk) 23:29, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
