NEWS FLASH
University Of Texas To Investigate Flawed Parenting Study | The University of Texas, Austin, has agreed to open an inquiry into the flawed parenting study conducted by one of its professors, Mark Regnerus. The study appears to have been politically calculated, using funding from right-wing foundations to produce skewed results portraying gay parenting in a negative light. Over 200 professors and therapists have critiqued the study’s analysis and publication. The UT “Scientific Misconduct” investigation will examine whether the study lacks scientific integrity and whether Regnerus engaged in improper relationships with his funders or others connected to the study.
