Twelve State of Florida Supreme Court Atkins decisions have just been posted to the "Court Decisions" section of the ICDP blog. Another gracious tip-of-the-hat to Kevin Foley, a regular guest blogger at ICDP, for providing copies. A total of n=28 decisions are now available for reading and research.
Obviously I've not read these and don't have any psychometrically related comments at this time. I've been overwhelmed (a pleasant problem) with professionals sending me copies of decisions and other material, so my current triage-based decision is to get the material posted.......so others can have access. With time I will be selectively reading and commenting (when I feel it appropriate) about psychometric issues in select cases.
