I don't think that was the central question, though. It appears as if he was investigating whether people with eReaders read more. Of course, understanding causation vs. correlation as well as most 6th graders (which neither more nor less than the majority of adults), the conclusion was backwards, in my opinion. He concluded that people with eReaders read more books; I would be tempted to reverse it and say that people who read more books are more likely to have eReaders.
Nonetheless, a fine study for a 6th grader. Better than what I've seen from many middle school students.
