I think it's a bit disingenous that the article is called "Whitey's Generation" when the Glueck's never gathered data on Whitey. I do find study's like this interesting. You should check out a documentary series called "Seven Up", it follows the same group of children in England from age 7 in 1964 to the current day. The filmmakers revisit the children (now adults) every 7 years. The premise is "show me the child at 7 years old and I'll show you the adult". -It's amazing how true this turns out to be. I think this is the first one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJUdR-xm5NY
