For this reason, Szasz's views are sometimes imputed to Becker.

However, Becker's support of Szasz was limited to the issue of academic freedom - whether or not Szasz (who had tenure) had the right to teach his views to psychiatry students. During this early period Becker was formulating a 'fully transactional' view of mental health that eventually formed the basis for his book, 'Revolution in Psychiatry' (1964).
