    I found “The Man Who Mistook Fis Wife for a Hat” to be a very interesting read. His condition is very unique and i have not heard of a condition like this myself. While Dr. P seemed to have the ability to see, he […]

    There are many benefits to a within subjects design. One of the many benefits is the fact that it is cheaper. Because you are testing the same subjects twice, you required half the subjects for the experiment than […]
