[statistical linguistics] odds that Obibun says 'nerd' THIRTY-FIVE TIMES better

[internet]

abstract

obibun's odds of writing 'nerd' at any given point are 35x better than yours

methodology

I looked at the first pages of obibun's last 20 threads. He writes about 4511 words, 26 of which are 'nerd'.

by comparison, I found the word 'nerd' only 5 times in a stratified sample of 15,000 words which were written by non-obibun tribalwarriors.

By my calculations, the odds ratio is about 35.

Would you be kind enough to model obibun's use of the word nerd as a random variable with a poisson distribution?

 

[Togowack]

holy sh*t is this the best subject material you can come up with people?

I think it's better modeled as a gamma distribution
