This is a quick but fun problem.
Alice collected some weather data and Bob collected some weight data of teenagers.
They collected 6 data sets of 40 samples each. But they forgot to label which sets contain Alice's data and which sets contain Bob's.
Alice knows that set A came from her weather data, and Bob remembers that set B is one of his weights samples.
Can you work out which other lists belong to Alice, and which belong to Bob?
I hope one day (after I finish my PhD) I'll manage to read many of the wonderful books by @allendowney I always start them an then get distracted :((((

#30DayChartChallenge Día 14: Kinship! Hoy toca visualizar "parentescos" animales, pero basados en ¡similitud de rasgos! #RelationshipsWeek #Animals
Este dendrograma horizontal es el resultado de un clustering jerárquico (hclust Ward.D2) sobre ~170 especies, usando su Masa Corporal y Longevidad Máxima (log-transformadas y escaladas). ¡Muestra quién se agrupa con quién según su estrategia de vida!
Las ramas unen las especies más similares. La longitud horizontal hasta la unión indica cuán diferentes son. Se ven grandes grupos que separan, por ejemplo, animales muy grandes/longevos de otros más pequeños/rápidos. Es una forma de ver la estructura oculta en los datos de rasgos.
(Solo se muestra 1/3 de las etiquetas para no saturar!)

Given that surveys tend to overestimate belief in #conspiracyTheories (https://osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/zsncr_v1) and support for #politicalViolence (https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2116870119), I wonder how much of the correlation between such variables remains after accounting for such measurement error.

This looks great: Andrew Gelman (@statmodeling_bot ) would be joining Nancy Cartwright and Berna Devezer. Short idea talks, lots of panel discussion and Q&A.
Join us on April 25th to discuss RCTs, replications, and scientific inference.

"Is p < 0.05 a reasonable threshold?"
Over 500 students and survey workers flipped a coin that never landed on tails.
They recorded how many flips it took to realize the coin was unfair.
On average, it corresponded to p ≈ 0.005.
