Abstract
I evaluate the current results of spin-dependent weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) searches within a model-independent framework, showing the most restrictive limits to date derive from the combination of xenon and sodium iodide experiments. The extension of this analysis to the case of positive signal experiments is elaborated.
