So, I have to do a statistics project for a class. It requires a survey.

Please answer the questions honestly without the use of Google or wikipedia, i.e. answer honestly.

Also, look forward to tomorrows Rearden Economic Report!

ok i answered the survey 😃

easy questions lol

Alexander Rearden Day 431, 17:08

Yeah, I figured a lot of people on here would know what the answers are, but most other people probably don't.

Some of them are easy, others I had to think a bout a bit.

Banach Day 431, 18:14

I think all of them were a tad too easy. One required some elimination (asian leader one). The other one I had no clue about (money fund)

emilio sanchez Day 431, 18:17

Those were pretty easy.

Throw in some tough questions next time Alex 😉

When I wrote it, I wasn't sure what population I would be sampling. It was between this and just all the people on my contacts list, for them it would have been too hard. For you guys, not at all.

Thanks for the data though!

Alias Vision Day 431, 22:15

Voted, taken.

I like surveys... ;p

Scyn Day 431, 22:35

Taken survey, kinda..easy going alex...

You'll probably see mine as being the latest one added.

I think I got all of them bar 1.

Alexander Rearden Day 431, 23:42

Fine you guys want something to sink your teeth into...

and don't use google or wikipedia, I didn't 😛

Alexander Rearden Day 431, 23:44

and one more thing, there is one question 60% of people got wrong an it wasn't the one I expected...

Nazure Day 432, 00:41

Shi....
It was difficult Alex. oO
Especially the last one, it was one of the hardest choice that I ever saw. XD
The other one only have 3 choices.

Cleomynestra Cathak Day 432, 01:25

I'd be interested in seeing a breakdown of the results based on demographic.

Second one was definitely a good, challenging test that would be too hard for the common individual. On a game like eRep, where the demographic is intelligent, worldly individuals who play trivia (LOL) this second set was perfect.

John. Day 432, 06:10

@ Alex , whats with the last question lol ?

Z Force Day 432, 07:11

Lol , i need to check the TV NEWS a little more.

Killswitch Day 432, 07:14

Done

Kelly Mahoney Day 432, 07:32

Aww, the second one was definitely harder....

Alexander Rearden Day 432, 09:24

At this point, no one has gotten them all right (on the second one of course)

Jacques Parizeau Day 432, 09:31

Some mistakes in your survey:

- The president of France's first name is Nicolas, not Nicholas.

- For NAFTA, none of your suggested answers are correct.
NAFTA = North American Free Trade Agreement (not Association...)

Darkzyxu Day 432, 10:06

Pretty easy... I thought that NAFTA was the North American Free Trade Agreement, not the North American Free Trade Association

Darkzyxu Day 432, 10:08

Didn't see comment above

Alexander Rearden Day 432, 10:16

And no one has answered all the second one correctly

Azzeriath Day 432, 12:59

Done and done

Alexander Rearden Day 432, 14:39

My bad on the NAFTA bit, I wrote the first one at 2 AM XD

and Nicholas is the english equivalent of the name Nicolas, I have seen it in print both ways. Either way its the last name that is important.

Out 48 surveys in by the time I made the graphs, only 11 got 100%, 12 got 87.5%, 12 got 75%

the Smartest age group? 18-24 (I combined 24-30,30-35 and 35+ since they were least populated and would have funky percents)

And on the second one, about 16 response and still not one 100% 😛
