In this week&apos;s episode Patrick and Greg launch a new occasional series called Stuff You Should Know. The topic for today is regression to the mean: what the heck is it, how does it arise in every day life, and what can we do about it. Along the way they also discuss the space-time continuum, Kai Ryssdal, inflation, witches of MacBeth, the hidden curriculum, oh dang, sh*t (ummm...STUFF) you should know, SAT prep courses, the triumph of mediocrity, angstroms, blobs. reinventing history, and being patronizing. Stay in contact with Quantitude! <ul> <li>Twitter: <a href='https://twitter.com/quantitudepod'>@quantitudepod</a> </li> <li>Web page: <a href='https://quantitudepod.org/'>quantitudepod.org</a> </li> <li>Merch: <a href='https://www.redbubble.com/shop/quantitude'>redbubble.com</a> </li> </ul>

S5E15 Classical Test Theory (in bed)

A podcast dedicated to all things quantitative, ranging from the relevant to the highly irrelevant. Co-hosts Patrick Curran and Greg Hancock talk about serious statistical topics, but without taking themselves too seriously. Think: CarTalk hi-jacked by the two grumpy old guys from the Muppets, grousing about quantitative methods, statistics, and data analysis, all presented to you with the production value of a 6th grade school project. But in a good way.
