Abstract
The commonly held superstition of the staff of an emergency room in a mental health center prompted a data analysis. Admissions to that unit on days of a full moon were compared with other periods during the month for the period of a year. Significant moon effects, unrelated to visibility, were found. Suspicions were confirmed.
