Although this is flawed and kind of silly, the hypothesis the study tries to support does just kind of make sense in a pure common sense way.
My wife is a survivor and she'd would never show that side of her life during the interview phase of employment. It just makes sense. Once you get the gig, and has more meaningful relationships with the people she would likely share. It's kind of assumed you never get that personal in an interview.
