Does someone know if this research has been published and is freely accessible? The difference of the losers of -0.5 compared to the expected value gives me the feeling N is not pretty high...
- gpvos 11y agoYes, the article links to the study, from where you can download the PDF.
- Pietertje 11y agoThanks, reading it more carefully I see I missed more info... Anyway, 86 participants, divided in two equal groups. Let's say the 43 participants in the loser group all threw the dice once you'll end up with a ~9% chance of the groups average to be below 6.5. So that might well be possible. The winners group throwing on average above 9 is highly unlikely purely by chance. Quite interesting.
