Re: A misconception in a previous diary... (none / 0)

I dunno. The study is based on a sample size of only about ~1200 women (they extrapolate from there). The only 43% I could find was

"Black women's high abortion rate reflects both their high pregnancy rate and the high proportion of conceptions (43%) that ended in abortion. Hispanic women had the highest pregnancy rate of all the racial and ethnic groups (132 per 1,000); one-quarter of pregnancies ended in abortion."

They also don't take into account that some women have more than one abortion since the study only covers abortions performed within a certain timeframe.

Re: A misconception in a previous diary... (none / 0)

I saw a study that said that 89% of all studies are manipulated to serve the point of view the commissioner or person running the study is looking for.
