Arm-chair psychiatrist-ing here, but it seems to me like people who are willing and capable of thinking about their diet at this level of complexity would be more likely to do well on tests. I wonder what the results of the study would be if they had these same people eat whatever they wanted, but do the meal planning for a third person?
Skeptical. This diet is just eat nuts and fish with advertising for other food industries marketed on superstition. Nuts and fish provide the benefit. You can't solve a a chronic disease based on a molecular process by eating less McDonalds and more fresh berries. Not addressing the cause. IMO the cause is HPV.
Wine is only good if the relaxation gained (everybody is different) is greater than the documented carcinogenic effects.
My mom is diabetic. She definitely gets relaxed from it, but I wonder if it she should cut out the "glass a day" thing.

MIND not "Mind".. and MIND is some acronym of acronym.
MIND indeed and thank you for pointing that out. Unfortunately, my time to edit the post has elapsed.
Nutrition science, sigh. But here's the diet:
The MIND diet recommends:[9]
Whole grains: three or more servings a day
Other vegetables: at least one a day
Wine: one glass a day
Green leafy vegetables (like spinach and salad greens): at least six servings a week
Nuts: five servings a week
Beans: at least three servings a week
Berries: two or more servings a week
Poultry (like chicken or turkey): two times a week
Fish: once a week
Olive oil: use it as your main cooking oil.
The diet discourages:[10]
Butter and stick margarine: more than a tablespoon daily
Pastries and sweets: more than five servings a week
Red meat: more than four servings a week
Cheese: more than one serving a week
Fried or fast food: more than one serving a week
The M is for Mediterranean, if you couldn't tell. I wouldn't mind a glass of red wine. But I'd like to have cheese with it. Via https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIND_diet

A serving of cheese is one ounce, which is roughly the size of your thumb, or about two small cubes of cheese resembling dice. I can't imagine being limited to this amount of cheese per week. That's a paltry eight cubes of cheese per month!

Sceptical of grains and wine recommendation and sceptical that red meat is discouraged.
Wine/meat results seem likely to be confounder related. Wealthy and educated people self-selecting into red wine because they read somewhere it's ok, and fast-food eaters having lots of beef. Grains seem like an old food pyramid propaganda thing, although I'm open to having my mind changed on that if someone has a study I can read on it.

"along with a glass of wine"
lol, doctors of the future are going to look back at the degree to which our medical establishment was totally mindfucked by the wine industry someday.
Or maybe they'll just be surprised as how few drugs were in it...
What if MIND2 was
four servings of grain A chicken one joint a handful of mushrooms a micro-dose of acid and smidge of the new cocaine derivative designed for kids

The best thing you can do to increase cognitive performance is to learn to think abstractly.
Based on an annual questionnaire of how frequently the food categories were consumed. I struggle to understand how research based on that data can be useful.
