Average can be misused and misinterpreted in many different ways. My example is that average can be misused when calculating is driving, aka the speed, you are driving. Now it always messed with my head when I first started learning average, mean, mode, etc. “If I am driving 60 mph, how long does it take me to get to the city?” Your speedometer gives you a general idea of how fast you are going this is the misinterpretation part. Your average speed does not show your speed at a specific point of your travels. There is the unspoken rule of driving that 5 over the speed limit is acceptable. But this is misleading because not every cop will let you off the hook.“Speeding was a factor in 29% of all traffic fatalities in 2020, killing 11,258, or an average of over 30 people per day. The total number of fatal motor-vehicle crashes attributable to speed was 10,136. A crash is considered speeding-related if the driver was charged with a speeding-related offense or if racing, driving too fast for conditions, or exceeding the posted speed limit.

Begin by introducing yourself to the class and explaining your background. It is well known that a statistics course is one of the requirements of a psychology major. But why is that? Using information provided in this week’s reading and knowledge that you have gathered in prior courses(MAT 240 or other stats courses you have taken), indicate why the study of statistics is useful to a person who majors in psychology. In addition, discuss a personal experience in which statistics were used. This experience could be related to education, insurance, developmental milestones for a child, etc., and it could entail your use of statistics or someone else’s use of statistics. In response to your peers, state how the uses of statistics they mentioned are helpful in the contexts described. For example, you could discuss why alternative ways of communicating information would not work as well.
