Serious Flaws in Study of Post-Abortive Teens

Serious Flaws in Study: A study in the pro-abortion Guttmacher Institute's journal, Perspectives on Sexual and Reproductive Health, claims to show that adolescents who have abortions have no increased risk of depression or low self-esteem. The study, published not in a peer-reviewed journal but in a publication of the former research arm of Planned Parenthood, attempts to contradict recent studies that have shown the mental health risks of abortion.

However, Priscilla K. Coleman, Ph.D., an expert on abortion and its effects on women, has identified numerous flaws in the study that 'seriously compromise' its findings, beginning with its small sample size.
