The conclusion would essentially say that some social structures are more explanatory of behavior than individual psychology. Given how much importance people place on personal idiosyncrasy or psychology, I'd say this is pretty cool if better confirmed.

Why qualify it with "some" social structures? You could come right out and say it like Karl Marx that social structures explain behavior -- but then you'd have the same problem he did which is that it reverses cause and effect.
