Since no one seems to actually be looking at the paper before posting garbage:
>we investigated people's willingness and reasons to—or not to—take a hypothetical brain health test to learn about risk of developing a brain disease
This is looking at hypothetical future tests which are predictive of brain diseases like Alzheimer's. This is not about sham online iq tests.
>Conclusion: High public interest in brain health and brain health testing in certain segments of society, coupled with an increase of commercial tests entering the market, is likely to put pressure on public health systems to inform the public about brain health testing in years to come.
The primary take away from this paper by it's authors is to note that society will likely need more testing capacity than one might first suspect.
There's more to the paper than just that; they also note factors that increase or decrease likelihood to be willing to test, such as whether the test could inform you of future untreatable diseases, among other things.
