You made some good points. <BR/><BR/>It still leaves only a relatively small number of those from the study who are actually identified as "thriving".<BR/><BR/>HaroldAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05838571980003579163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33052404.post-90163800908048950462009-03-24T07:24:00.000-03:002009-03-24T07:24:00.000-03:00The article doesn't explain things very clearly I ...The article doesn't explain things very clearly I think. From what I can gather:<BR/><BR/>1: In the 1980's there were 241 children studied, all of whom had an iq of less than 70.<BR/><BR/>2: In the 2000's 41 out of those 241 people were then followed up. So there is no information (in public) about the remaining 200 people.<BR/><BR/>3: Out of those 41 people who were followed up in the studies, about 20 were said to be thriving. They did not give any information about the other 21 people.<BR/><BR/>4: So we are told there are about 20 people who are thriving, 21 people we may infer are not thriving and 200 people who we know nothing about at this point in time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
