He talks about how our biological image can carry us to success. In Outliers: The Story of Success another non-fiction text by Malcolm Gladwell‚ he tells that talent comes from the number of hours practiced‚ specifically 10‚000 hours‚ and gives very good evidence with experts and studies to support his claim. Both stories

chapter eight SURVEY AND CORRELATIONAL RESEARCH DESIGNS You have probably made or heard the popular comment “Is it just me‚ or [fill in the blank here]?” This question is really a survey that asks others to indicate their level of agreement with some viewpoint—for example‚ “Is it just me‚ or is it hot in here?” or “Is it just me‚ or was this exam difficult?” We largely ask such questions to gauge the opinions of others. Many examples likely occur every day‚ from completing a customer satisfaction

In the topic called Graphing Display the Barron’s guide discusses the different types of graphs‚ measures of center and spread‚ including outliers‚ modes‚ and shape. Summarizing Distributions mentions different ways of measuring the center‚ spread‚ and position‚ including z-scores‚ percentile rankings‚ and the Innerquartile Range‚ and its role in finding outliers. Comparing Distributions discusses the different types of graphical displays and the situations in which each type is most useful or appropriate

Let’s get this straight first. I actually applaud Malcolm Gladwell for writing his book Outliers. His theories throughout the book touched ideas that I wouldn’t even begin to think about or question. He gave support for his theories and spent a lot of time describing occurrences that seemed to prove them (as you can guess I’m a bit skeptical about some).

Purpose: Can the penny hold more drops of water or more drops of the MYSTERY liquid? Research: Cohesion- The state of sticking together. Pennies can hold more water because soap reduces the cohesion of water and the water molecules break apart and can’t stay on the penny. Hypothesis: The penny will hold more a larger number of drops of water because water is more cohesive than the “mystery” liquids Variables: Independent variable: Penny Dependent variable: Number of Drops of Water Control
