re Hour: Date: Lesson 10.1: Day 1: ls Yawning Contagious? ‘Mythbusters investigated this question. Here's a brief recap. Each subject was placed in a booth for an extended period of time and monitored by hidden camera. 34 subjects were given a "yawn seed” by one of the experimenters: that is, the experimenter yawned in the Subject’ presence before leaving the room, The remaining 16 subjects were glen no yawn seed. 1.

A person is either a yawner oF a non-yawner, no matter which treatment they are randomly assigned. 5. Shuffle the 50 cards and put them into two piles, one group of 34 that gets the yawn ‘seed and one group of 16 that does not get the yawn seed, Record the proportion of People who yawned in each group.
