🔍 Data Detective

📚 Scientific Foundation

This assessment is based on research in statistical cognition by Kahneman & Tversky, pattern recognition studies by Biederman, and data literacy research by Gal (2002). The game tests your ability to identify trends, recognize correlations, avoid statistical fallacies, and make evidence-based conclusions.

Research shows that data literacy is crucial for modern decision-making, yet many people fall victim to correlation-causation fallacies, base rate neglect, and availability bias when interpreting data. Studies by Bar-Hillel (1980) demonstrate that training in statistical reasoning significantly improves real-world judgment.

Key Skills Tested: Pattern recognition, statistical inference, correlation analysis, trend identification, outlier detection, and bias recognition in data interpretation.
