The study referenced by the Chronicle has the following conflict disclosures (which the article’s author fails to share):
"Dr Dickman reported that he is a plaintiff in several lawsuits challenging abortion restrictions in Montana. Dr White reported personal fees from the Society of Family Planning Stipend as well as grants from the Susan Thompson Buffett Foundation, Collaborative for Gender and Reproductive Equity, and Jacob and Terese Hershey Foundation during the conduct of the study. Dr Lupez reported grants from National Research Service Award T32HP32715 during the conduct of the study. No other disclosures were reported."

Activists. Compensated activists at that.

The study used six-year-old self-reported national surveys to rack up a huge figure of hypothetical rapes (519,981), and then divided that figure per capita, by the length that pro-life laws were in effect, and finally assumed that every eighth vaginal rape of a woman between the age of 15–45 results in conception. Twenty-six thousand Texan babies were born of rape, the researchers suppose.

The fact that the American Medical Association would publish this study is an outrage.
