What I really like about this article isn't what it has to say about astrology but rather the way the authors are clear that this is an example of how we test a claim scientifically, by making the claim precise, choosing a specific measurement, and having clear criteria to describe what success would look like. We see some practical applications that tested not only for predictive accuracy but in comparisons based on the astrologers' own confidence, (self-)assessments of skill levels, and consistency across different practitioners.
