The research does not support this article (surprise).

- The researchers primed subjects on "power" by having the subject write an essay about a high, neutral, or low power situation. It's not clear that the intervention maps to what the article calls power.

- The researchers did not find statistically significant differences between the low power group and the neutral group. They also did not find significant differences between the neutral group and the high power group. If the neutral group varied this much, are we tracking meaningful differences?

- Is reduced mirroring "damage"? Is reduced mirroring necessarily undesirable? We have no idea.
