As intelligence goes up... (pg. 3)

i say the graph is wrong .. i think you included the "outliers" as part of your data, and it made the graph that way .. did you use the p-test to conclude your accuracy and the bell curve to accurately balance the data that you took ?

/goes off and hides in front of my statistics book .. :nervous:

I dont get it! :conf:
@ least ur happy then :p

The attainment of happiness is impossible.

Suffering and dischord are woven into the fabric of reality. Everyone must express suffering and dischord as a result.

The idea that happiness is attainable is there to make you suffer even more because you feel bad that you can't attain it.

It's a perfect system :)

x2 - the more they need to assure they're smart, the more insecure they are about their mental capacity, usually.

Oops, my comment wasn't aimed at you, by the way, I did find the first post funny :p

Dude, sorry to tell you, but your graph is completely wrong. If happiness goes down as intelligence goes up, that implies that hapiness is a dependant of intelligence (mathematically). The line wouldn't be straight, it would be curved. Yeah, I like math.

Hmmm, you can explain that the error exists, but can you explain why it is an error?

ok, well assuming that one could actually derive an equation to demonstrate the dependancy relation between hapiness and intellect, I find it hard to believe that it would be a linear equation. Linear equations, those with variables to the exponent of 1 produce straight lines. If you were to derive an equation, you'd have to take samples from a huge pool of people, and make some sort of 'best fit' graph. Like most things in nature, these graphs are usually some form of a quadratic equation, thus producing curved lines. But this is all really pseudo-science with no real scientific basis anyways.

you know i'd have to argue that it looks more like an inverse sign curve...i wouldn't say happiness and intelligence has a direct relationship like that hahaha...
