On balance, though, I think that as the administration is going to fall back on NIS-3 to support anything they plan to do--and to block programs they don't want--it is wise to push for a more honest accounting of the study.
If Besharov and Dembosky want to discount both increments by appealing to the same process (enhanced sensitivity) then they need to explain (1) why this process applied discontinuously in the NIS-3 and did not affect the intervening category of moderate injury or harm, and (2) how the NIS-2 respondents managed to overlook three-fourths of the children who had been seriously injured while at the same time evidencing greater sensitivity in identifying moderately injured children.
In light of Besharov's criticisms, it is noteworthy that he participated in the Conference of Experts convened in late 1991 by the National Center on Child Abuse and Neglect (the NIS-3 sponsor) specifically to refine the NIS-3 design.
Instead, we concluded that the NIS-3 findings "emphasize the need for better targeting, whether by reporters in referring children to CPS, by CPS screening practices in connection with reports, or by both."
The NIS-3 findings may run counter to his position, but it is important for Besharov and Dembosky, and for readers of Slate, to get the facts straight.
