Have you ever read scientific papers?
What you are reporting on is an abstract. Abstracts are used to gain funding. I have read many a fine sounding abstract… only to find in the actual research paper methodologies are flawed.
Why isn’t the actual research paper linked, as a matter of fact, it isn’t linked at the Choice Project “Contraceptive Choice Project”
choiceproject.wustl.edu/publications.html
??? What am I to think of e!science news when they don’t link the original research? What about the Project itself?
Without the actual methodology and peer-review history - you don’t know if their findings / conclusions are correct.
I will tell you, that according to “Contraceptive Choice Project” Planned Parenthood is their partner and funder

AND
IS correct!
Now, that just covers the Post-normal Science part of this so called “study”.
