Huh, it really makes you think... some people have no idea how to run an experiment or about statistical significance.

[–] LANIK2000@lemmy.world 20 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Nah, they actively avoid it. My mom was also like this, and when we did experiments as a kid and something didn't work "we were just doing it wrong".

[–] Asafum@feddit.nl 19 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Sounds like my mom too.

She practiced reiki at one point and wanted to convince me it works by trying it on me. When I said I didn't feel anything at all her reply was "oh well that's probably just because you don't believe in it."

...I love you mom, but yes that is it and not in the way you think it is lol

...but she's right, people feel better from alternative medicine by believing that it work, it's placebo

[–] Asafum@feddit.nl 3 points 2 months ago

Yeah lol that's what I meant by "that is it (not believing), but not the way you think."
