Chapter 14 - Base Rate Base rate is the mean number of times an event occurs divided by the mean number of times it might occur. Representativeness is a bias when people wholly and exclusively rely on pre-conceived notions. Empirical evidence suggests that people formulate their judgments by relying on representativeness and neglect the base rate. This results in sub-optimal judgments and guesses. Given a plausible base rate‚ the anchoring of judgment of the probability of an outcome whilst putting

measurement of how acidic or how basic a substance can be. The pH scale is used to measure how acidic or basic a living cell can be. The pH scale ranges from 0-14; 0-6 being acidic‚ 8-14 being basic and 7 being neutral. There are many factors that could be accounted for that might influence the pH of cells. The location of a cell might affect the pH of it. For example‚ a cell living in an acidic environment might have a pH level ranging from 0-7. Also cellular metabolism may affect the cytoplasmic

of ointment base. The types of ointment bases used as vehicles for drugs are selected or designed for optimum delivery of the drugs and also to contribute emolliency or other quasi-medicinal qualities. Ointments properties vary since they are designed for specific uses‚ ease of application or extent of application. The purpose of the lab was to learn the difference between different types of ointment bases. In this experiment‚ we learned how to measure the ability of each ointment base to incorporate
