Critics of this study have noted that it was funded by the [[National Organization of Circumcision Information Resource Centers]] (NOCIRC), an anti-circumcision activist group. Van Howe maintains that this funding did not bias his study, telling ABC News, "The study was based on an objective finding" and "There's no way you can change what a person felt or didn't feel."<ref>{{REFnews
