What a strange story.

Oddly, I wrote about about this same study in the recent "Blank Slate" thread (last two posts - forgot how to link to specific one). http://well-temperedforum.grou...921071266#8921071266 It certainly was a strange story. Although certainly unethical, I find myself wondering about the positives as well as the negatives of identical siblings raised separately. That is, provided all the parents were suitable. https://www.npr.org/2007/10/25...re-nature-vs-nurture PS. Note the book mentioned by NPR is the same as the movie - while concerning different sibling sets!

I saw this last night. While it was apparent that nurture did make the brothers different, it still felt so very wrong. And even worse, the records are sealed at Yale. Some have since been released, including films of the boys as shown during the credits..but they were not the only victims and there is still so much that is under lock and key. It seems to me that Yale should just open the archive. ![]()

Twin studies are a staple of social science research. Here is a classic on the returns to schooling: Ashenfelter and Krueger 1994 But it's always retrospective. | |||

I happened to catch Three Identical Strangers on Hulu last night. Not sure why, but I missed it when it was on originally. And then there's this story recently published on WaPo.
