 In addition, some information about problems apparent during testing were collated from tester reports, with the idea that they might be useful for explaining within-family (particularly MZ) differences Here is a copy of meeting notes in Australia in 2007 where the idea was discussed: {{erds:aus_major_health_notes.pdf|Discordancies}} In addition, some information about problems apparent during testing were collated from tester reports, with the idea that they might be useful for explaining within-family (particularly MZ) differences Here is a copy of meeting notes in Australia in 2007 where the idea was discussed: {{erds:aus_major_health_notes.pdf|Discordancies}}
  
-These data were entered in CO as healthcodes02-08and included categories for  Allergies, Emotional or Behavioral, Medical or Physical, Family issues, Prenatal or Birth Conditions, and School Issues. The specific codes for each category are listed in this Word document: {{erds:rdshealthcode2-08.doc|Health codes}}+Family and school issue data were entered for F3 in CO as post2healthcodes2-08.xlsx. Up to three family codes and three school codes could be entered per child. However, many of these codes are common to both twins, rather than child-specific. Numerical codes for these categories:  Allergies, Emotional or Behavioral, Medical or Physical, Family issues, Prenatal or Birth Conditions, and School Issues are listed in this Word document: {{erds:rdshealthcode2-08.doc|Health codes}}.
  
-Although equivalent coded data has not been located for Australia, the tester ratings entered by Rosemary include tester notes which serve a similar purpose. I believe we can compile notes into a text-based summary file of issues that may suggest reasons twins are discrepant.+Equivalent coded data has not been located for Australia. I examined tester comments entered by Rosemary to see if similar material was noted, but notes did not seem to cover non-test-session material.
