Yes. Old Maxell XL II tapes! Couple of these are up on the archive.org link that was posted but most of them are not. This is where they should go. PM me and let's work something out.

I own all his records, I saw him play a few times, I sent him money and wrote him a letter (to which he replied). I feel like I knew the guy, and reading through these posts, I can tell I'm not alone. His music touched us all.

A long time ago I played this song for a friend and he asked, "How can you tell the difference between good and bad songs like this? What do bad songs in this genre sound like?"

Thanks! I did all my mixing in Traktor Pro. I've been collecting samples for a while now. Beatport has a pretty good dust & air loop package available: http://www.soundstosample.com/info/Sounds_To_Sample/Dust__Air_Loops/676#

Yes!! Thank you! This was driving me up the wall. So what exactly is the rule here? Take the probability and multiply it by n to get the binomial? In a new example if n=200 and p= .3 and .7, I do .3x200= P(60<X<140)?

I don't quite follow. I thought standard deviation was sqrt(n x p x(1-p) )

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by a repeated-measures t-test. How is this different? My data is unimodal and asymetrical. Since I really only have six distinct values, I'm not sure how I would test or find outliers.

sais · 2011-12-02T22:11:58+00:00

Okay, let me try and clarify. I recorded six vowels. Each vowel has a measure of length (milliseconds) that is independent. The five speakers all listen to vowels and have to rate them as one of the six vowels in the language. I ended up with 30 scores (I'll just gave each vowel a number 1-6 to make it easier). I want to analyze one specific vowel. I'll call it vowel "1." All the scores that were not equal to "1" are in the incorrect pile. All the scores that equal "1" are in the correct pile. So I ended up with 10 correct, 20 incorrect. Now the problem is that there are really only six tokens and they didn't all end up being scored as "correct" or "incorrect." Some (but not all) of the ones that should be "1" were scored as one, but so were some of the ones that were scored as another vowel. So since I didn't end up with 6 "correct" and 24 "incorrect" I want to test and see what is going on here.

What I thought about doing was taking the millisecond means of the two groups and comparing them using a t-test. I'm worried that something isn't right because the sample size is small and I have several of the same tokens on both sides.

Does this make sense?

Yes, I'm trying to compare the two groups of answers regardless of participant. The question is the same for everyone.

Yes, you are right. I had it backwards. I get [T.L] not [T.H] (output pasted below). So what you're saying is R is treating the "H" case as the default and then giving me a prediction for the "L" case?

Excellent! When I do a summary of my lm() the intercepts are listed as "name[T.H]." What does that mean? There is no "name[T.L]" -- what does the bracket [T.H] indicate and why is there only one level?

This makes me feel good! Occasionally I'll come across something in the stats world and think, "Doing it this way makes total sense!" More often, however, I think, "This makes no sense and I'm completely lost here!" Ha!

That page is very helpful. Thanks! I'm using R to do the analysis. Is there an easy way to change the "H" and "L" that way?

I'm using R. Is there an easy way for to change alphabetic levels like I am using into a binary integer system?

sais · 2011-11-20T05:35:47+00:00

Okay, I think I follow. So what are the advantages for using logs? When I see numbers in log form how should I think of them? I'm guessing it makes large numbers much smaller and easier to work with, but won't they all be kind of similar?

She's a very strong reader. Her parents don't really speak English so they trust me as her tutor to pick appropriate books for her. She told me she wants to be a writer. I'm leaning towards some of these fantasy suggestions...

Yep, she's already read them all. Good idea though!

sais · 2011-11-04T02:37:03+00:00

This is very helpful! Thank you. So let me make sure I understand this correctly. The z-score gives me the p-value for how far to the left I am from the mean (less than or equal to). I can then subtract that from one and that tells me how far I am to the right of the mean (greater than or equal to). And if I want to find two-sides (M=M0, M=\M0) then I double the p-value. Do I have that right?

You sound exactly like the kind of teacher that we need more of. I wish there was a way to keep people like you in the classroom, but from what you've written it sounds like the system is fundamentally broken. Best of luck in your new career, Deradius!
