Whilst the article was published on 1st April, it was not an April Fools joke. The study on which it reports is genuine and can be found at johnjerrim.files.wordpress.com/2019/04/bullshit_wp.docx.

One of the fake mathematicall terms they mention is "proper numbers" but
The proper divisors of the integer n are the positive divisors of n other than n itself.- so proper divisors being positive integer numbers would suggest proper numbers is a reasonable term.

Another one of the fake concepts is "declarative function" which is a computing term.

And the third on is "subjective scaling" which appears to be something real in psychology.
