My comment: The article mentions "a 2008 study in the Journal of Economics
and Human Biology."

(a) There is no journal with the exact title. There is, however, a journal
called "Economics and Human Biology."

(b) Thus, I believe the above statement refers to

Averett SL, Sikora A and Argys LM, For better or worse: relationship status
and body mass index. Econ Hum Biol, 6:330-49 (2008).
