    I have a few issues with the data collection overall, although the author does discuss some of these nicely.

    I’m a bit perplexed by the analysis of the correlations, though. The author describes coefficients in the range 0.2-0.3 as “medium” which I would not consider to show correlation at all. It would be interesting to see a scatter of any of the variables being tested, I’m guessing we would see quite clearly that there is no correlation. Unless, of course, I’m missing something and the author is not using Pearson’s… It would have been nice to have a methods section going over the actual tests used.
