So the Placebo Effect was the topic of conversation at the lunch table one day, and my friend mentions a great way his parents used the placebo effect against him. His parents could tell when he was sick so they got the strongest medicine they could. After about a day, he would get better. Who knew Tic-Tacs had such curative powers?

While watching YouTube videos, I was given a one question survey. It asked of the four following options which product I had seen advertising of. I selected none of the above because i had never seen any of them. ( The picture is not of the actual survey i received but it is one similar to it.) This survey placement is good for a large sample because people will do anything to skip a 30 second ad.

A great example of an experiment which shows Explanatory and Response Variables would be the soda experiment conducted by Mrs. Leiboff, and inherently many of the similar experiments conducted by the students. Most of the experiments the Explanatory Variable was a difference in food, while the Response Variable was often the subjects ability to distinguish the difference.

I spoke to my cousin who is currently attending Shippensburg University. She was (somewhat) able to explain to me how grading on a curve works. Grading on a curve is based on a normal standard curve, where, in her case, a score of 67% can become a B.

In some strange Cedar Crest Dating Game, the members of FBLA have sponsored a school wide survey to see which pairs of students are the most compatible. This huge survey will be completed on Feb 14. This survey has a voluntary response sample because papers were distributed with the information to take the survey, but only those willing to take the survey will have their data collected.

The Today show held an experiment where they tested to see which type of exercise would burn the most calories. They had a woman on separate days try each of three workouts. Although the experiment is horribly under covered, this still shows the basics of a proper experiment design.

Averages come up often in the world of sports. The Eagles' Carson Wentz is no exception. At the end of the last game of the season, one of the announcers brought up how Wentz's average yards per pass is 6.2 yards. This seems fairly good but when compared to Tom Brady's average of 8.2 it doesn't seem as impressive.

In Psychology, we had to do an observational study. My study included sitting and observing people at the mall. This is a convenience sample because the subjects observed were simply the ones that had passed me while I sat. This allowed me to give minimal effort while still obtaining data.

This fun pie chart's "data" does not include numerical values and therefore displays categorical variables. This cute picture is a cute example of a graph using categorical variables.

Grandmas are always a plethora of anecdotal evidence and mine is no exception. I had been having trouble with my car. specifically that the lock would freeze over night, therefore preventing me from getting inside. My grandmother told me that she would spray the lock with WD-40 to prevent the lock from freezing. Needless to say after attempting this experiment I still could not get in my car. This is a great example of anecdotal evidence because it was based on no scientific foundation.
