The claim is unquestionable.

Did Abby Nissenbaum work on that study, specifically? It seemed to me that the two research teams just happened to be researching similar things and finding the same conclusions (and, at least in the case of Abby's group, doing so illegitimately). That said, I agree with the more general point that it's good to be skeptical of individual social science studies.
