@Delta hi I booked a repatriation flight with Delta because the information I found said you would allow a guinea pig in the cabin. The website now says otherwise. Is this a recent change?

[bridget koehler @bridgetkoehler]

@2020Alvaros What might make eddy react differently than David when Robert left? #lincpsych

[bridget koehler @bridgetkoehler]

@2020Santiagom Totally, or is it linked to their DNA? #lincpsych

[bridget koehler @bridgetkoehler]

@isabellap2020 Who do you think has the “rights” to the study? Would it be ethical to publish knowing that some twins may find out they had a twin as a result of publishing? Most are 65 now #lincpsych

[bridget koehler @bridgetkoehler]

@2020Marianaq Do you think this is unique to multiples being separated or do you think it may be common amount adopted children in general? #lincpsych

[bridget koehler @bridgetkoehler]

@2020Santiagom If you had been part of the study, would you want to know or would you prefer to just think it was an oversight on the part of the agency? #lincpsych

[bridget koehler @bridgetkoehler]

@2020Noeliaw Epigenetics or vulnerability factors or both? #lincpsych

[bridget koehler @bridgetkoehler]

Why do you think Eddy was the one who ended up self harming? #lincpsych

[bridget koehler @bridgetkoehler]

@2020Noeliaw Should adoption agencies be required to tell adoptive parents this information. #lincpsych

[bridget koehler @bridgetkoehler]

@FerM_2020 Very true. If you were 65 and had a long lost twin, do you think you would want to know or would you rather not? #lincpsych

[bridget koehler @bridgetkoehler]

@rekham_20 Very true, their economic situations were different but all were Jewish families in NY, so we could hypothesis that a lot of the deep culture is similar. #lincpsych

[bridget koehler @bridgetkoehler]

If there are people who were participants but still don’t know they have a long lost twin, would it be ethical to now publish those results? #lincpsych

[bridget koehler @bridgetkoehler]

For sure. Who do you think should have the right to this data? The participants? Scientists? The public? The adoption agency? Yale? #lincpsych

[Emmae_2020 @2020Emmae]

#lincpsych Its even more impactful to know the study was never published and that the harm that was done to them ultimately served no real purpose.

[bridget koehler @bridgetkoehler]

Totally, how might this impact their schemas? #Lincpsych

[Emmae_2020 @2020Emmae]

#lincpsych I think finding out they were being treated like lab rats since they were 6 months old was an adverse life experience for all of them.

[bridget koehler @bridgetkoehler]

However, if a minor can’t give consent does their adoption agency have this right as a “legal guardian”? #lincpsych

[bridget koehler @bridgetkoehler]

Do you think the actions of the psychologist can be forgiven as a result of the historical considerations #lincpsych

[Emmae_2020 @2020Emmae]

@rekham_20 I agree, the adoption agency didn't have a right to make that kind of life-changing dicision for the children. There was not a lot of consideration for ethics when conducting psychological experiments back then #lincpsych

[bridget koehler @bridgetkoehler]

This brings up an ethical question of who owns the rights to this information. The participants? The agency? The scientific community? The public? #lincpsych

[bridget koehler @bridgetkoehler]

If they all have the same DNA, then why do you think Bobby’s leaving effected Eddy in such an extreme way and not David? #lincpsych

[SuejiK_2020 @suejik]

In Eddy’s case, it’s possible to how there are certain vulnerability and provoking factors. For example, the death of a figure who anchored his relationship with his siblings and his brother leaving the business. #lincpsych

[bridget koehler @bridgetkoehler]

Do you think the twins should have access to the study? #lincpsych
