How good are you at calculating risk? - Gerd Gigerenzer
How can we use statistics to evaluate risk? Dig into the difference between relative risk and absolute risk and how each is used in the news.
--
A new drug reduces the risk of heart attacks by 40%. Shark attacks are up by a factor of two. Drinking a liter of soda per day doubles your chance of developing cancer. These are all examples of a common way risk is presented in news articles, and can often be misleading. So how can we better evaluate risk? Gerd Gigerenzer explores the difference between relative and absolute risk.
