    This was a different way of describing statistics. I really like how it demonstrated positive, negative and zero correlations.

    This genuinely might have saved my degree! Seriously, I've failed my stats module twice already because i really don't get it and it scares me but this is so visual and really makes sense. I feel like I kind of understand basic stats. Amazing idea- THANK YOU!!!

    Lovely Demonstration! Enjoyed the art, dance and music, as much as the various colourful statistical dimensions of correlation between variables. That was beautifully represented! Thank you:)

    Really innovative way of explaining basic statistics - Great resource

    The tip about causation or lack thereof is really helpful!

    a) Visual interest.
    b) The first example obviously sets the stage for the succeeding examples since the three sets of perfectly correlating dancers are obviously synchronous. So then for the next examples, one need look for the three pairs of correlations.

    Great video. The visuals 'correlated' perfectly with the text.. it was all very easy to understand.

    Very good! A very creative way to explain correlation. Will surely share to my class.Thanks! =)

    In the universe this is true on many levels, this would also be true for dance, music and other artistic expressions....... dance is just one of those components that show is flow of energy and exchange of it, how is moves and evolves as it is realized and manifested....

    Very nice and innovative, a good explanation of variance and homogenity and hetrogenity

    Very cool Idea!
    I also find the music very relaxing and good for studying. Where can I get more of it?

    would be intrigued to know if any of the videos have been incorporated into actual research methods and stats modules ?

    All the students forced to watch these videos equals real world ad revenue for these people. Heck yeah.

    It's pretty straightforward. How much would there be to say about it?
    On the other hand, this is CZcams. The absence of crude remarks, sexual innuendo, and jokes is suspicious. Maybe the uploader is deleting such comments.

    Am I the only one thinking learning such a simple, super simple "statistical concept" is a very, very slow way of thinking? Let me see you guys dance biserial correlation coefficient or rank order coefficients correlation or product moment correlation coefficient ... You know?

  • @KwameBrownMoveTheory
    @KwameBrownMoveTheory Před 11 lety

    But this happens in real live research damorend. Rarely in psychological research (that is well designed) are we simply looking at 2 variables.

  • @Dekeljokearound

    song?

  • @damorend
    @damorend Před 11 lety

    You're trying to explain the relationship between 2 variables, so why show 6 dancers at the same time? Since the explanation makes you expect 2 variables, it's easy to interpret each group of 3 identically clothed dancers as one variable, and each dancer as a datum.
    It takes a lot of effort to understand that in each example there are 3 simultaneous correlations between pairs of variables (dancers) happening, each with the same coefficient but with distinct data sets (dance moves).
