"Q. I want to direct your attention to Page 4. What is this table?"Source
"A. So these, as I mentioned, there was an original list of about 77 specific behaviors that have been found associated with grooming in the literature fairly consistently. These are the behaviors that were part of that original list, where perhaps there were more differences of opinion, but the level of agreement among the professionals in this particular study did not reach the level of statistical significance."Source
"Q. What is your takeaway from the study in the article?"Source
