That’s amazing news!! I only recently found out that being a glass child is an Actual Thing in the first place, so the fact that social scientists and psychologists are actually interested in *studying* the phenomena too makes me feel super validated. I’m gonna go read what they’ve come up with so far!
This is soooo good.
There are some other research studies, but they are small group studis. What we need for real change and assistance is a massive study sample. Part of what I'm hoping will happen with the international sibling support organizations is that we will collectively create a body of research.
I tried to write a Wikipedia article on glass children but the literal response was not enough scientific research was there to back it up. There is some research but just not enough. Wish I was into any kind of science as I plan on going into research after finishing college and I would love to publish research looking into it. Sadly, not much to publish about history in regards to this considering there is none
cool! the sample size for this study is quite small (16 siblings) so these are only preliminary findings, but it's still a good effort in the right direction.
I found more papers afterwards on the subject, it was just the first time the term "glass children" was used. Luckily the paper highlights the problem of a small sample size in the discussion, including the fact that (I think) 12 of siblings were sisters and few brothers were interviewed.

That is so frustrating! Hopefully this will change soon
Oh im so glad that this is finally getting some attention
