  >Interesting results, but they may not be testing for the right personality traits. As with any scientific reporting, the probability that they're not testing for the right thing is inherent in their experimental design and analysis. As they state, it's very unlikely that error led to this case. Generally, your results must reach a certain probabilistic rigor (95% chance the listed results are due to the listed reasons), so that there is a 5% or less chance that the effects being observed are due to design failure or similar issues.
