    I’m aware of it’s source, as stated this isn’t a journal of high reputation. As I also started it’s a single study which means nothing, it’s dozens of large scale studies with replication which informs.

      Ah, misunderstood you then.
      Are there generally any methodical issues with the study in the end or is it a case of just being wary of the source?

        While the source is of some note, it’s more that a single studys findings are just one small part of the puzzle. It’s takes many studies, massive numbers of people and data and lots of time to come to an in-depth conclusion. It’s interesting, but it means nothing for now and so it’s best not to panic over it, go posting it everywhere as if it’s news. It’s the start or possibly end of a line of investigation. I hope that makes sense.
