"leaky" filters are also characteristic of ASD and ADD/ADHD. I have often wondered if these conditions occur at a higher frequency in the creative thinkers vs general population. I wonder if they will look at that too?
Kids being medicated - now that's an unfortunate generalization. Please don't assume that all medicated children are being fed drugs to make them conform to a group norm. There are some kids who legitimately have problems with managing their attention, and who could benefit greatly from a medication that offsets the neurotransmitter imbalance that prevents them from doing so.
No assumption made. Just noting that medications are a relatively new input into the ongoing data on choice of profession, so frequency will likely be impacted.
