Hi Florence, regarding the study on prevalence of cluttering in the Jewish community, our attempt at Touro College was not very successful due to difficulties getting consent forms signed by parents and getting the permission of the principals of the parochial schools that were contacted. Moishe, maybe you can help in this regard. We are looking for anyone who is interested in joining us to pursue a prevalence study within the Orthodox Jewish population. David Daly has already agreed to be involved. The other issue is the multinational study on the prevalence of cluttering, which was discussed with the international representatives of the ICA some time ago. Some of them expressed an interest in participating. I suggest initiating this study under the aegis of the ICA, in which all the committees can be involved in planning. The fact that Yvonne is conducting such a study already can expedite the process. What do others think? Isabella
