Dunbar's hugely influential social bonding hypothesis for the evolution of human language, music, & dance is based on the putative increase in primate grooming time with group size.
These are the supporting data, including a confound with substrate pointed out by others 🧪 #BioAnth 1/3

#statistics thought of the day:Is an EHR randomization defective? Simple example contrasting frequentist and Bayesian inference. Would you rather have Pr(getting MORE heads than what we observed if a coin is fair),or Pr(Pr(heads) is outside [0.48, 0.52])? #stats #rstats hbiostat.org/bayes/bet/ev...
