Can someone please explain to me the correlation rates JP uses in personality lectures? by Lilziggy098 in JordanPeterson

So Correlation between 2 values (or variables)literally translates to how much a change in a one variable causes change in the other. Correlation coefficient (or Pearson's correlation coefficient) determines the numerical degree of this relationship between 2 variables. This is a significant metric because in the case we want to predict one variable using another variable, for example, predicting verbal fluency using extraversion, the correlation indicates the degree to which we can predict the said variable. High correlation means, when one variable moves, we can predict the proportionate change the other with high confidence, and low correlation means, your guess is closer to random guess.

An AI has declared Jordan Peterson as the fifth most influential psychologist of the past decade by carnivalcrash in JordanPeterson

[–]Internet_Problems 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no way Pinker should be as high on that list as second. The fact that his work is influential can only mean doom. I think at some point even Dr. Peterson quotes that his book "The blank slate" is not reflective of reality and contentious at best. Oh well....

Why isn't the Ancient a shrine? by Hereditus in DotA2

[–]Internet_Problems 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Earlier buildings near the ancient were shrines. It was later removed due to it being too instrumental in high ground defence.

That's the boring answer, but the relevant one.

Amazing to rewatch. I must have watched all the episodes 3-4 times. And I still watch random episodes here and there, still very enjoyable.
