No cited sources. Only link goes to a laughable site of pseudo intellectualism. Pushing the standard narrative of, "Every strength is tied to a weakness, which means things equal out..." Which is of course BS to make people feel special. Gonna go out on a limb and say nope.

- threatofrain 11y agoThese findings fit with my understanding of an ecology of findings, and I think that criticizing the lack of citations as a way of shutting down conversation is counterproductive. Do you have institutional access? Then searching (or citation lookup) is easy, but most people here don't.
- andrewclunn 11y agoAs if questioning vague findings with no methodology given were akin to "shutting down discussion." Pop psychology is notoriously garbage. Being skeptical of such a general claim without any way to verify even the actual numbers is the only sane response. People just want to believe this junk because they can suddenly say, "I'm easily distracted... That must mean I'm creative!"
