This is especially important when addressing less statistically savvy audiences. Such audiences could perhaps be encouraged to think of two normal distributions, one representing males and the other females. Instead of imagining that natural selection creates two distinct psychological types - a male type and a female type, described by the mean values for each group - they could be encouraged to imagine that natural selection pushes the male and female distributions closer together or further apart. This simple expedient may help people to visualize the effects of natural selection on average sex differences without at the same time losing sight of the variation within each sex. View quote

We've come up with ways to judge the quality of a product. The thing is that we're just getting used to the idea that information is a product, and we have to come up with criteria on which to judge which information is worth paying attention to and taking seriously and which isn't. So we have to think: is this information new? Is it relevant? Is it trustworthy? Can I verify it? Who's the source? If you're a journalist you're used to doing this as your job, but that's going to become increasingly necessary for people online, because they just get hit with so much information, and if they don't want to just sit there, manipulated by all different kinds of propaganda, they have to start getting tooled up on how to be a savvy information consumer. (Heather Brooke)
