Pro-lifers decry APA's denial of link between abortion, depression

[Baptist Press] 28 Aug 2008--Representatives of post-abortion and pregnancy center organizations have denounced a report that asserts there is no trustworthy evidence that a lone abortion causes mental health problems in a woman.

A task force of the American Psychological Association offers that conclusion in a draft report released after what the APA described as a review of studies conducted since 1989.

Women who have experienced and observed the negative impact of abortion found the report difficult to accept, especially after other studies have reported conflicting results.
