This article has been getting a lot media play over the past couple of days 
(which is interesting in itself, since it was published back in April). It 
strikes me, however, as a classic example of paying way too much attention to 
p-values and not enough to effect sizes. Yes, the effects are significant 
(mostly), but if you look at the full article, it appears that the R-squares 
range from  .11 downwards. Not exactly a Eureka! moment.
