A Comment on "Race, IQ, and the Middle Class" by Trotman: Rampant False Conclusions.

Longstreth, Langdon E.

Journal of Educational Psychology, v70 n4 p469-72 Aug 1978

Trotman's study (EJ 168 902) correlating child rearing in Black and White samples to children's achievement and intelligence is criticized. Trotman made several erroneous conclusions, and did not add important information about the nature nurture controversy as it applies to racial differences in intelligence. (Author/BH)
