They gave every astrologer a set of 50 things about a person and 5 birth charts to choose from. They weren’t even coming up with the chart themselves!

After taking the test, most thought they nailed it. Zero out of 152 did better than 5 out of 12. None nailed it

Astrologers who rated themselves highly experienced (“world class experts”) did the same or worse as those who said they have limited experience. Both performed the same as random chance

There's only one real way to categorise disorders and it's when you google it and the first results fit into one or more of the following categories:

1. "Is your child-" "Does your child-" "How to cope with the burden of being a parent for-"

Survey data was collected on tumblr.com, a microblogging website popular with the lgbt community, where it was advertised ("blazed") to approximately ten thousand users at random, providing a more representative sample. The replies feature was enabled to allow for write-in responses. After removing all write-ins consisting of statements such as "kill yourself" and "get fucked" (~57%), the remainder (128) were indepently coded by two researchers. Coding discrepancies were resolved by the research team as a whole. Survey results are displayed in Table 1
