Abstract

The author replies to a critique by Lidz and associates of the Greater Copenhagen Adoption Study conducted by Rosenthal and colleagues. A detailed examination of the reanalysis by Lidz and associates of tabulated data from the original adoption study reports substantiates only one of their objections. The author argues that, because of the way in which the original data were gathered, the reanalysis is without substantial merit in evaluating the adoption study.
