Running Total of Known Conspiracies: The Science They Don't Want You to Know

As you may very well know, I am working on developing a comprehensive set of statistics with reference to conspiracies. The goal is to show the statistical validity of supposed conspiracies by using already leaked conspiracies. This includes MK Ultra, the NSA PRISM Project, and Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment to name a slim few.

For those of you who want to follow along, I will be keeping track of the numbers here. Ah yes, spreadsheets. Useful even for conspiracies. If you want a link to the Google Sheet, here's the link.

Post	Known Conspiracy	N(t)	t	p-min	Deviation	ψ	Run Ave p	StDev
1	MK Ultra	20000	27	1.3004E-06	2.1323E-06	9.999987E-01	0.000001300	0
2	NSA PRISM	31000	12	1.9193E-06	1.4273E-06	9.999980E-01	0.000001653	0.0000004985
3	Teskegee Syphilis	2500	40	6.9922E-06	3.5596E-06	9.999930E-01	0.000003433	0.000003103

So until next time, take that as you will.

Multiple Regression: Basic Statistics Lecture Series Lecture #14

As promised from last time , I am going to cover multiple regression analysis this time. As mentioned last time, correlation may not imply causation, causation does imply correlation, so correlation is a necessary but insufficient (but still necessary) first step in determining causation. Since this is a basic statistic lecture series, there is an assumption that matrix algebra is not known to students who take this course, so this section will only be working with the solutions obtained through a program such as Excel , R , SPSS , or MatLab . This is the regression case where there is more than one independent variable, or multiple independent variables, for a single dependent variable. For example, I mentioned last time that there is a causal correlation between the number of wins a team in the MLB has and the ratio of the runs that team score to the runs that team allowed. The more runs they scored per run they allowed, the more wins they are likely to hav...

Confidence Interval: Basic Statistics Lecture Series Lecture #11

You'll remember last time , I covered hypothesis testing of proportions and the time before that , hypothesis testing of a sample with a mean and standard deviation. This time, I'll cover the concept of confidence intervals. Confidence intervals are of the form μ 1-α ∈ (a, b) 1-α , where a and b are two numbers such that a<b, α is the significance level as covered in hypothesis testing, and μ is the actual population mean (not the sample mean). This is a the statement of there being a [(1-α)*100]% probability that the true population mean will be somewhere between a and b. The obvious question is "How do we find a and b?". Here, I will describe the process. Step 1. Find the Fundamental Statistics The first thing we need to find the fundamental statistics , the mean, standard deviation, and the sample size. The sample mean is typically referred to as the point estimate by most statistics text books. This is because the point estimate of the po...

Basics of Statistics Lecture #10: Hypothesis Testing of Proportions

As promised last time , I am going to cover hypothesis testing of proportions. This is conceptually similar to hypothesis testing from the mean and standard deviation , but the calculations are going to be different. A proportion is the percentage of success in a sample or population, reported in decimal form. This means that if heads comes up 50% of the time, then it is reported as p=0.50. Because of this, the calculations are different than that of the mean and standard deviation case from last time. For instance, when we have proportion data, we don't know the standard deviation of either the sample or the population. This means that the standard error calculation cannot be performed as typical. We must instead use a proportion-specific version, which is given by $\sigma_{E}=\sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{n}}$, where p is the proportion and n is the sample size. If we have the sample size and the number of successes, we can calculate the proporti...
