I've been enjoying Kahnemann's book - lots of interesting discussions of his 
and others' work.  But then I got to a section where he talks about the study 
where some college students were asked to make sentences out of "old" words 
(forgetful, old lonely) while others made sentences out of neutral words.  The 
students who had the "old" words walked more slowly down the hall.

I thought this study was debunked?  I could have sworn I saw/heard a discussion 
in which it was said that the results could not be replicated.  Anyone know?
