From the article:

"Fernbach and others analysed surveys completed by nationally representative samples..."

From Fernbach's directory profile:

"Prior to pursuing his Ph.D., he worked with consumer goods companies as a strategy consultant for two boutique firms in Boston."[1]

Don't want to cry "astroturfing" here, but if the shoe fits...

Thanks for pointing this out! Very informative and I would have missed it otherwise.

Anything that starts out with "public surveys" is up to no good.
