  Rind et al. (1998) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rind, Bauserman, and Tromovitch respond to this criticism by emphasizing that "the representativeness of college samples is in fact irrelevant to the stated goals and conclusions of our study" since the purpose of their research was "to examine the validity of the clinical concept" of CSA.
Rind (1998) suggested that "willing man-boy sex accompanied by positive reactions may be better informed by the ancient Greek model [i.e., sexual relationship in which the older male also acts as a teacher and guardian] than by models based on the female experience (e.g., rape and incest models)" (p.
Rind (1995b) asserted that the consequences of CSA "is debatable because the traumatic behaviors attributed to the actual or fabricated sexual contact may instead have been induced by the interview tactics of the therapists and child abuse workers" (p.

 PRD - Rind et.al. 1998   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Rind and Tromovitch meta-analyzed mean effect sizes from each sample (i.e., sample-level effect sizes) separately by gender and found that the magnitude of CSA-adjustment relations was small for both men (r =.07) and women (r =.10).
Rind and Tromovitch (1997) found that the studies in their review usually did not use statistical control, and when they did, it was inadequate.
Rind and Tromovitch's (1997) meta-analysis did not reveal a sex difference in CSA-adjustment relations (although the direction of the mean effect sizes was consistent with greater problems for SA women), although it did show a sex difference in self-reported effects.

 THE DENIAL OF CHILD ABUSE: The Rind, et al. Controversy
It may in fact be that those victims of CSA that Rind et al.'s study found to have escaped psychological harm in young adulthood, were the ones who were helped to realize (perhaps in therapy) what a terrible injustice was done to them.
So the concern that apologists for "intergenerational sex" [or "adult-child sex" in Rind et al's preferred euphemism] may be trying to accomplish the same feat for pedophilia is not far-fetched and is not merely motivated by fund-raising needs (as implied by many of the special issue authors).

 Science or Propaganda? An Examination of Rind, Tromovitch & Bauserman 1998
Rind et al.'s (1998) finding that men react less negatively to CSA than women is another result that has not been supported by large scale studies of nonclinical populations.
Duncan (2000) tested Rind et al.'s (1998) contention that studies of CSA in college populations should be considered generalizable to the population as a whole.
Rind et al.'s (1998) proposed redefinition has not been supported by mainstream researchers in the field of child maltreatment (e.g., Ondersma et al., 1999; Ondersma et al., in press) or by the APA (see American Psychological Association, 1999).

The Rind report attacked the empirical foundation of the moral claims that were being made, and like the Kinsey Reports it was vehemently attacked and seen as undermining the moral tradition.
To admit Rind type arguments into the debate, and to argue shades of gray and issues of definition, was to lose the major battle.
The Rind, Tromovitch, and Bauserman study of the impact of CSA among college students is politically incorrect but scientifically correct.

 Skeptical Inquirer: Damaged Goods? - long-term effects of childhood sexual abuse   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
The meta-analysis relies on the college sophomores' self-reports as measures nor only of positive versus negative assessment of the earlier experiences during the present college years, but of the principal variables of consent versus no consent and positive versus negative responses at the time of the abuse.
Rind and Tromovitch themselves coded the fifty-nine studies for these self-reports.
The Rind findings should lead both researchers and the public to seriously challenge the usefulness of any study that relies heavily on self-reports, not just those of teenagers.

 WorldNetDaily: APA pedophilia on the march
Rind's child sex data might be as reliable as his mentor Kinsey, who labeled his cadre of child rapists "scientists." These pedophile "scientists" claimed 317 to 2,045 "weeping," "screaming," "fainting" and "convulsing" children, even 2-months-old, "derived definite pleasure" from oral, manual, and worse, tests for "orgasm."
Like other failures in the Rind and Co. paper, dressing up pedophile activists as child molestation experts and saying a 9-year-old can "consent" to sex implies their "science" is the work of sexual psychopaths.
Rind -- like Kinsey -- uses phony data to reduce attitudinal and legal protections for boys and girls in order to eliminate the age of consent.

 Climate Change 2001: The Scientific Basis
Paleoclimate simulations (Manabe and Broccoli, 1985; Rind et al., 1989) also suggest the idea of similarities in climate sensitivity for a spatially homogeneous and an inhomogeneous forcing (arising due to the presence of continental ice sheets at mid- to high northern latitudes during the last glacial maximum).
In this case, the lower stratosphere is radiatively warmed while the surface-troposphere cools (Stenchikov et al., 1998) so that the climate sensitivity parameter does not convey a complete picture of the climatic perturbations.
Using a series of idealised perturbations, Ramaswamy and Chen (1997b) show that the gradient of the equator-to-pole surface temperature response to spatially homogeneous and inhomo-geneous forcings is significantly different when scaled with respect to the global mean forcing, indicating that the more spatially confined the forcing, the greater the meridional gradient of the temperature response.

Methods for deriving soundings of atmospheric moisture from passive infrared radiance observations have been improving for many years (Smith et al., 1979; Chedin et al., 1985; Hayden1988), and radiance data for sounding purposes are collected by the VAS system on GOES satellites (Smith, 1983) and the TOVS system on NOAA polar orbiters (Susskind 1993).
Recent measurements of the collision-induced absorption by O2 (Orlando et al., 1991) have shown that earlier parameterizations (Timofeyev and Tonkov, 1978) overestimate this effect, so it is unlikely that the O2 contribution is any greater.
While the 6.7 um channel is essentially impossible to operationally ground truth, the other channels are verified (Chesters et al., 1985; Hayden, 1988), and since the same radiometer is used for all channels it is unlikely to be severely in error.

Simulations with simple models (Bertrand et al., 1999; Crowley and Kim, 1999; Grieser and Schoenwiese, 2001) and AOGCMs (Tett et al., 1999; Stott et al., 2001) produce a small decadal mean cooling in the 1980s and 1990s due to several volcanic eruptions in those decades.
The surface temperature response to the 11-year cycle is found to be small (e.g., Cubasch et al., 1997; White et al., 1997; North and Stevens, 1998; Crowley and Kim, 1999; Free and Robock, 1999).
Note the steady response in the stratosphere, apart from the volcanic warm periods, and the large variability in the lower troposphere (from Bengtsson et al., 1999).

 Science and Morality or The Rind et al
The authors say on page 27 of the meta-analysis: "A possible shortcoming of focusing on the college population is that college students may be too young for symptoms to have appeared, or they may be better able to cope with CSA stresses than persons in other populations (Jumper, 1995).
Furthermore, mean effect sizes from college samples, as reported by Jumper, were similar to those from national samples (Rind and Tromovitch, 1997), nonclinical samples (Neumann et al., 1996), and community samples (Jumper, 1995, after corrections).

Rind, et al.’s main point was that the media and those involved in treating child sexual abuse (CSA) had promoted the idea that it “produces intensely negative effects for all its victims” and that many professionals assume that sex between adults and children invariably causes “intense” and “pervasive” harm in both sexes.
Along these lines, one of Rind, et al.’s conclusions in 1998 was that “men reacted much less negatively than women” to CSA (p.

These studies generally find that a combination of natural and anthropogenic forcing is necessary to reproduce early twentieth century changes, while anthropogenic forcing dominates the warming of the latter twentieth century (e.g., Hegerl et al., 2000).
However, studies using the instrumental record are limited to a relatively brief (roughly one-century) interval, during which it is difficult to cleanly separate the responses to multiple anthropogenic and natural radiative forcing (Stott et al., 2001).
Longer-term climate model studies have focused on coarser (e.g., hemispheric mean) changes over the past few centuries to millennia (Free and Robock, 1999; Rind et al., 1999; Crowley, 2000; Waple et al., 2002; Shindell et al., 2001b, 2003; Bertrand et al., 2002; Bauer et al., 2003; Gerber et al., 2003; Hegerl et al.

 Special Report: Climate Change and River Flooding
A regional model embedded in the global NCAR model revealed the existence of areas with significant increases and decreases of frequency and intensity of precipitation under 2xCO2 conditions (Mearns et al., 1994).
Groisman and Easterling (1994a,b) reported that the North American annual precipitation time series shows an upward trend (+7.6%, significant at the 5% level) in precipitation amount during the period 1891-1990, owing mainly to increases in eastern Canada and adjacent regions of the United States.
These wetlands formed a buffer between the rivers and other low-lying lands, and their loss caused a concentration of water further downstream which, in turn, contributed to a larger flooding.
