If you search for 'sensitive' on the BSA website you will find a critique by Per Alm of a 2005 article. Basically he tells us the figures are rubbish. Don't stop there though: go on to the article below about adults being sensitive. No figures given but the ideas are well worth looking at.
For people who give statistical probabilities on very small numbers be very sceptical and always ask the sample size. Freak waves happen. You can flip 10 heads in a row: it is possible - watch Derren Brown. Lightening does strike twice. Also worth asking what exactly do the figures mean.
Be careful of what I say just as I am usually sceptical of Per Alm's conclusions.
By the way: is any of the stuff on this blog helpful on a daily basis rather than just occasionally interesting?

About Me
- PM
- I am a middle aged medic who is interested in Modelling Behaviour. I have 12 yrs experience and attend trainings regularly with John McWhirter at Sensory Systems Training in Glasgow, Scotland. I am interested in stammering and I am convinced that in the majority of cases it is a behaviour and not an affliction. Rather than lurk on other sites I decided to share my thinking on a blog.
