"Cognitive tasks, as well as emotional tasks such as regulating your emotions, can deplete your self-regulatory capacity to exercise," A distinction made more clear by the non-blogspam linked in the comments here, but perfectly evident in the words of the lead author. I hold my years of experience completing projects in the trenches against her psych lab any day. "This is science?" just my opinion If your opinion is that science isn't science until it satisfies your intuition, it's not wanted. It's obvious to anyone with two brain cells to rub together that the blogspam of a press release isn't going to have the citations of a study. I don't suggest psychology gets away without citations, but a cursory knowledge of the field would let you know the Stroop test is science, and that an examination of the actual study, should you care to put any effort into something other than your denigrations, would inform you that your flippancy is unfounded.
