The study, by Stellenbosch University, found that coloured South African women have an increased risk of low cognitive function, due to low education levels and unhealthy lifestyle behaviours
CAPE TOWN – Following outrage and an online petition, the publishers and authors of a study on coloured South African women have retracted the article.
On Thursday, Aging, Neuropsychology, and Cognition publishers issued a statement and said serious flaws existed in the methodology and reporting of the original study. However, the group said the retracted article would remain online to maintain the scholarly record, but it would be digitally watermarked on each page as “retracted”.
