Group design and statistical analyses are only going to give you those general percentage numbers.

And like you're saying, you're trying to get a big enough group where individual differences don't matter.

But what we're all agreeing is that individual differences do matter and they're actually the most important piece of the whole thing. Hey there, fellow behavior nerds.

I'm Hannah Branigan, and you're listening to Drinking from the Toilet, the podcast

about the reality

of teaching and training with positive reinforcement. And speaking of positive reinforcement,

I want to send a shout out to a couple of listeners. First, thank you to three dogs and a boy,

In fact, both Jackie and Diana, and I feel like we're on a first name basis now, hold PhDs

in behavior analysis and have real jobs beyond podcasting teaching at Regis College.
