Vocabulary
reference of "their"
Does "their" refer to "arts people" or "most of us"?
Context:
Contemporary science is providing some astonishing insights into the workings of the mind, glimpses of which can help arts people understand the nature of the often unexpected connections they make, but I think most of us would resist the idea that the products of their dynamic imaginations could be reduced to a scientific formula for all people at all times. Much more interesting is the idea that we continually adjust our view of the world.

thank you! And does "a scientific formula for all people at all times" mean "a scientific formula which would be comprehensible for all people at all times" or "a single formula that would apply to all people at all times"?
