Coleman, Coyle, Shuping, and Rue make false statements and draw erroneous conclusions in analyses of abortion and mental health using the National Comorbidity Survey.

In a separate publication (Steinberg and Finer, 2011), we reported that were unable to replicate the findings reported by Coleman et al. in their original paper. We followed with an inquiry to the editors of the Journal of Psychiatric Research. In response to our inquiry, Coleman and colleagues prepared a corrigendum, indicating that they had used incorrect weights in their original analyses and reporting the results of their analyses re-run with correct weights.
