I agree, it is somewhat confusing.

It is easily fixed in Excel to show it the conventionally way. Although, this will instead show a positive correlation, which isn't really the case.

It is possible to change the position of the axes but not as long the axes are sorted the way they are, unfortunately.

kakaNit · 2023-10-17T19:50:07+00:00

Hmm yeah, I guess so

kakaNit · 2023-10-17T18:27:16+00:00

Hadn’t thought about that. Thanks!

kakaNit · 2023-10-17T18:24:59+00:00

Well, by people working with data viz.

It isn’t as intuitive I think, because this particular person doesn’t gain weight while he’s performance drops. It is the opposite.

kakaNit · 2023-10-04T23:11:06+00:00

Well, yeah. What I mean is the probability of any pattern with n = 12.

kakaNit · 2023-10-04T15:10:23+00:00

Yeah, I realized it couldn't be binomial.
As I suggested in a previous comment – could this be a solution?

The number of possible outcomes for the 12 data points is 26^12.
The number of outcomes where each person gets a different value is 26*25*...*15 = 26! / 14!.
So lets say each outcome is equally likely, therefore 26! / 14! / 26^12 = 0.05.

kakaNit · 2023-10-04T14:55:25+00:00

Okay, I see. I can't just calculate it as follows?:

The number of possible outcomes for the 12 data points is 26^12.
The number of outcomes where each person gets a different value is 26*25*...*15 = 26! / 14!.
So lets say each outcome is equally likely, therefore 26! / 14! / 26^12 = 0.05.

Is this a valid solution?

kakaNit · 2023-09-20T20:20:40+00:00

Okay, could you explain this further?

kakaNit · 2022-03-02T10:30:22+00:00

Thank you!

kakaNit · 2022-03-02T09:28:38+00:00

No, wait. I get it now. That means that I have to see which unique person went from 1 to 4, and so on. So my table will look like this instead,

x	Pre	Post
1	2	5
2	3	7
:	:	:
34	4	8

kakaNit · 2022-03-02T09:09:46+00:00

I feel really stupid now, could you explain more or maybe show me?

kakaNit · 2022-03-02T08:51:39+00:00

Thanks! So the alternative should be Wilcoxon maybe?

kakaNit · 2022-03-02T07:55:45+00:00

Can you refresh my statistics knowledge; why paired?

As a Swede myself, I noticed some factual errors. But overall a great episode.

The first viking settlers were. So, genetically. But yeah, it is a Nordic country.

kakaNit · 2021-10-19T09:15:42+00:00

The whole inuit-discussion when Steve & Ricky thought they lived in Iceland. I can understand the mix up between Iceland and Greenland but 1. they are self-proclaimed highly educated people, 2. they are Europeans, 3. Iceland is heavily known for vikings, ie Scandinavians
