[JDM] Questions answered
Here is what you picked:
Question 1 (child custody example): 18
Question 2 (prospect theory): 26
Question 3 (Russell's sanity): 10
Question 4 (Women's toilets): 18
Question 5 (boys and girls): 21
Question 6 (performance/regression): 19
One person was not able to take the exam due to illness. I will be
writing a separate exam it seems for that person.
Although I thought question 3 is one of the easiest, I suspect that it is
worded in such a way that it is not so clear about what is going on.
I am not surprised to see so many question 2 answers for an open book
exam. I wonder whether fewer would have done that on a closed book exam.
Or did you all review prospect theory closely when revising for the exam?
A very quick looks suggests that the answers to that are very good on the
whole.
I also thought that question 4 is the hardest or at least most subtle.
While question 6 involves a combination of things (confirmatory bias and
regression to the mean), but is very similar to something discussed in
class (the Israeli fighter pilot study).
I now have 112 answers to mark in two days. Looking backwards, I believe
that I should have had you do fewer questions!
