Arthur,


Do you have The g factor by Jensen?  He
discusses this on page 340, and gives the
original ref on page 348 (see note #55).


The project ended in a scandal, literally--
with indictments and convictions of two of
the principals.  The whole sordid saga is
described in chapter 6 of Herman Spitz' book,
The Raising of Intelligence (Erlbaum, 1986).
The book may be out of print; my recollection
is that I picked up a copy through the used
book service for a pittance (www.mxbf.com).


Right now I am without a copier.  I'm
waiting for the HP R80 to arrive in stores.
If you can't find the Spitz book e-mail me
again in a few weeks and I will copy the
chapter and fax it to your or mail it.  If
I had a copier, obviously would do that
right now.


Best,

Patti


P.S.  Many thanks for posting my dissertation
abstract to your listserv.  One of your subscribers
is a reporter who contacted me, read the dissertation
and wrote a column about it that I'm told will hit
the streets in NY tomorrow.

You got more references on this, I'm amazed I didn't have any
entries for this in my index, I'd like to beef it up.


I didn't realized iq points were so expensive.
