Inconclusive?
- saurik 6y ago
  Correct: as in there isn't actually sufficient evidence to make the case one way or the other, based on the data that has since been published (which means we know even less than "it isn't true").

    I believe the reason selimthegrim tried to clarify was that you had typed "inclusive" in your first comment, which would give the whole sentence a very different (harder to decipher) meaning :)

Well, the book Willpower also does mention research experiments with description of the process, not out results. I don't know who to believe, this one paper, or theirs multiple.
