    Default Good heavens! Christian men are watching PORN!!

    "Face it, gentlemen: 388 subjects does not a statistically significant research pool make. The only thing the Proven Men survey proves is that the organization has no idea how to conduct what it calls a “national survey.”

    Seriously: 388 men? Facebook posts routinely generate more responses about random cat pictures..."

    Look at Hunt 101. Pictures of 1,117 “Hunting Hotties” and 6,047 Dogs

    I think it takes something like 1,100 to 1,800 for a survey, if it is done correctly.

    I was a math major and specialized in number theory and probability and statistics. Sample size is a complex subject, but in general the larger the sample size the higher the confidence level in assertions made from the data. Surprising, a random sample size of only thirty-five is needed to draw conclusions with a 95% confidence level. The most important word in the last sentence was "random". Most samples are not random, such as surveys about how you liked a product you bought, because they are voluntary and arbitrary, not random. Getting a random sample is very difficult. Getting a large sample does not guarantee randomness.

    I have a friend who does forensic analysis of computer disk drives for legal cases. He said that out of hundreds of hard drives he has analyzed, he has found only a few of men's computers that don't have porn on them. I think that 75% number way understates the truth. Asking people is not a good way to study the issue. Examining their hard drives would be.

    This story is about a porn study on the effects of porn on men, and couldn't find a control group that didn't watch porn. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-n...s-cant-1530232
