Normally we'd call it a paper... I think it's just phys.org writing the headline a certain way.

of course it's a study, that's implied. The issue is people overuse the word to make it sounds like it's more than it actually is.

I need to "study my surroundings" but I would never describe that as "according to a study, I should slow down here because there are children at play".
