That is one i'm definitely going to have to read the journal article on... it will be interesting to see how they controlled factors. (if they did at all).
Based on the article it just seems like another case of science journalism being... stupid.
I mean, essentially what it's saying is "stressed out people find it harder to concentrate". Which spaital reasoning needs more then most other kinds of reasoning.
I'd guess basically none of the claims in the article are made in the actual scientific journal article.
