STUDENT DATA
From ‘Basic Statistical Computing’ by Cooke,
Craven and Clarke. Data collected from 100 university students. Age in
years is quoted as a decimal, not years and months. The left-handedness
score is based on a questionnaire which listed various activities (e.g.
writing, throwing, striking a match) that can be done with either hand.
It uses an integer scale, 0 to 20, a high score indicating a very left-handed
person. ‘Reaction time’ was the length of time elapsed between
a light being flashed and the person pressing a button. ‘Card sorting
time’ was the time taken to sort a thoroughly shuffled pack of playing
cards into four suits.
