Details
Twaddle and Sons, the publishers of Women are from Bras and men are from Penis, were upset about my claims that their book was as useful as a paper umbrella. They ran their own experiment (N = 500) in which relationship happiness was measured after participants had read their book and after reading the book you are currently reading. (Participants read the books in counterbalanced order with a six-month delay.) The (fictional) data contains the following variables:
-
id: the participant's id
-
book: whether relationship happiness was measured after reading Women are from bras and men are from penis or after reading Discovering statistics using R
-
happy: the participant's relationship happiness after reading each book
