Anyone familiar with
Atkins
MR/ID death penalty cases knows that
the
Flynn Effect is a frequently argued
measurement issue in these cases. To facilitate a thorough
understanding of the pro- and con- Flynn Effect research
literature, a small group of individuals are working together to
build a master archive of FE related research
articles. The goal is simple--to include the major
research articles published re: the FE related to Atkins MR/ID
death penalty cases in one free on-line web
archive.
The individuals who have contributed their time
and effort to this project currently include
Dale Watson, Greg
Olley, Karen Salekin, Kevin Foley and the blogmaster (Kevin
McGrew). We are starting with a master reference list and
have located (or scanned) PDF copies of all articles in the current
list. This is a project of the
Intellectual Competence
and Death Penalty blog.
This on-line archive system is issue
neutral. The systems goal is simple--to put the key
Atkins MR/ID death penalty FE articles in one location for use by
researchers, expert witnesses in such proceedings, psychologists
who engage in intelligence testing, and lawyers and officers of the
court. The system will be updated as new material is
published.
