#feedback typo in :
Add another fact in need of an explanation. For example, "Considering just the last 3 years of data, Conan's average clearance rate is 35%." ... The stimulus already told me that Conan's average over that 20 year period is 10%, so if the last 3 years are higher, then the previous 17 years must pull it down to 15%.
is 15% supposed to be 10% ?
question re: placebo effect
Is it possible for Group 1 to experience significant pain-reduction from an effective medication, and for Group 2 (having been administered sugar pills) to also experience significant pain-reduction through the placebo effect?
In this way, the medication that was administered was still effective, yet the placebo effect in Group 2 was equally powerful. In this hypothetical situation, the placebo effect does not necessarily negate the medication's efficacy.
Me too!
