So this is what they were going to do in their trial: They were taking 3,000 children, they were going to give them these huge fish oil pills, six of them a day, and then, a year later, measure their school exam performance and compare their performance against what they predicted their exam performance would have been if they hadn't had the pills.
لذا فإن هذا ما كانوا يقومون به أثناء تجربتهم. كانوا يأخذون 3000 طفل، ويعطونهم كميات كبيرة من حبات زيت السمك، 6 منها كل يوم، وبعد سنة يقيسون أدائهم الدراسى عبر متابعة إمتحاناتهم ويقارنون بين أدائهم المدرسي في الإمتحانات مع توقعاتهم بما قد تكون عليه أدائهم المدرسى فى حالة لم يأخذوا تلك الحبوب.
