Telepathic or just pathetic?

Investigations and experiments PPDAC

Telepathic or just pathetic? Background Some people claim that it is possible to communicate information to someone else only using your thoughts and none of your other senses Many experiments have been conducted to try to show scientifically that telepathy exists

Telepathic or just pathetic? Problem Are you telepathic?

Telepathic or just pathetic? Plan Zener cards will be used for the experiment

Telepathic or just pathetic? Plan One of the five different cards will be selected at random by the experimenter and mentally projected to the participants

Telepathic or just pathetic? Plan Participants will record which of the five cards they think has been transmitted telepathically

Telepathic or just pathetic? Data Transmission 30

Telepathic or just pathetic? Analysis Listen carefully as the cards that were transmitted are read out in order Mark each one as correct (or not) and add up how many transmissions you correctly received

Telepathic or just pathetic? Analysis Based on samples of 30 from a population with p = 0.2 Using the binomial distribution Setting limits for sample proportions based on the population proportion

Telepathic or just pathetic? Conclusion Are you telepathic? Explain your answer using statistics. Do you have any concerns about the design of the experiment?
