    Why is there no link to the study or article by the psychologist? How exactly do they measure executive function? Without that, this just sounds like the author jerking off about hand written lists.

    This feels like a broad generalization to me. I typically make many trips per week for just a few items; I don’t need a list.

    Other times I might make a list because I’m buying more or I’m planning on cooking a new recipe.

    I just can’t imagine someone living an hour drive from the grocery store using a big list has “sharper thinking” than someone that lives next door to it and never needs a list.
