I love it when my bias is confirmed. I bet there's a German word for this feeling.

Verdachtvalidierung (I don't speak German I just translated "suspicion" and "validation" and made a compound word from that. Looks legit to me.)

Even the site hosting the study includes a huge disclaimer stating that it's just the author's personal opinion.
