First Day of Class
This blog is for my FAML 160 class here at BYU-I. Today we had a great discussion about analyzing data that we receive when researching a certain topic, or even information that we receive through word of mouth from friends, family, or what we hear on the television. You should be aware of the sampling size and representation. One thing that I thought was very important is to watch for people who are bias to certain aspects of the research because that will skew the results. When you receive the information it is very wise to be skeptical and look for flaws instead of blindly following, especially when these are decisions that influence your family.
