A short Veritasium video explaining regression to the mean and how ignoring it leads to wrong conclusions about punishment versus reward, medical treatments and sports streaks. It uses the example of flight instructors who believed criticism works better than praise.
HN 推荐的原因: HN commenters link it as the clearest short explanation of regression to the mean, especially for how it misleads people about feedback and statistics.
