Johnny Solomon asked about accessing research on the impact of Israel study, and mentioned a number of the dissertations that have appeared on this subject. Aside from the book that was published that included a section based on my research, a number of unpublished dissertations are freely available online. These are the ones I know about (I am sure that there are others):
