Hi guys and gals!
Does anybody recall reading any scientific articles that show clear biased or selective observation?
I'm currently reviewing literature and despite having searched long and hard I find myself totally unable to find articles that show clear selective observation, and neglect of factors that ultimately affect any conclusion drawn from the results.
For example; if someone were to complete a study that used an aquatic species with end result drawn being pH, then that person would have to account for respiration that occurred during the time the species were in the water body, as respiration could lead to a decrease in pH.
Having given that as an example, it isn't quite what i'm expecting to find (although it'd be beautiful), but any study involving an aquatic species that neglects a potentially result altering factor would be absolutely ideal.
Thanks for your time!

Statistics using dependant variables with different units
in Mathematics
Posted
Hi guys,
I'm currently trying to do statistics to compare the variance of results in two different methods.
However, my results are in totally different units. So I think I need a way of scaling my data so that statistical analysis can take place.
The two methods are very different ways of measuring something, and the units cannot be converted to match. Is there a way of scaling, or perhaps a method concerning ratio?
The data sets are BOTH dependant variables and here are a few of the equivalent data points:
183 - 7.8
173 - 7.7
173 - 7.7
175 - 7.6
166 - 7.4
174 - 7.4
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks
