Funny. The research seems to show that an ability to quiet one's mind, listen to others even if you're not interested, and follow arbitrary orders is helpful in school. To me, this is obvious, and once again reinforces the fact that school is a harmful institution based on conformity and obedience. To the school researchers, this shows the fundamental importance of this "new cognitive skill".
