NASA Why? Files segment explaining how to form hypotheses, collect data, and build data matrices.
Hi, I'm Dr. Karla Lottarella at the NASA Langley Research Center.
00:00:00
Hi, we're trying to solve the problem of the barking dogs.
00:00:06
I might be able to help you.
00:00:09
We collect a lot of data here.
00:00:10
That's how we understand problems so we can solve them.
00:00:12
Right now we're developing a flight simulation experiment so we can test a new display idea.
00:00:15
We'll collect data from pilots to see if they can fly you and your family around more safely
00:00:20
with our new display as opposed to the old one.
00:00:24
We've received a lot of emails from neighborhoods.
00:00:27
We really need to know the best way to keep track of all this data.
00:00:29
How do you sort and collect your data?
00:00:32
Well, first we start with a question or a statement of what we think is happening.
00:00:34
We call that statement a hypothesis.
00:00:38
So for example, in my case, I hypothesize that the new display will be better than the
00:00:40
old display and that that will be true for both younger and older pilots.
00:00:44
The data we collect will fill in the test matrix.
00:00:48
Each data point can be considered an observation.
00:00:50
In my experiment, I'm using the computer and sensors in the computer to take these observations.
00:00:54
You can also take direct observations by looking at things yourself or indirect observations
00:00:59
by asking other people to report things to you.
00:01:04
How do we know if data is important to our problem?
00:01:06
Well, hopefully your data supports your hypothesis.
00:01:08
That means that the conditions you thought were important actually did influence your
00:01:11
measures.
00:01:14
If it doesn't, then you might want to collect some more data, some different data, or rethink
00:01:15
your hypothesis.
00:01:19
This is great.
00:01:20
Remember the matrix Dr. D showed us in the stink problem?
00:01:21
We can use that to help us rule out some of the possible sources of the problem.
00:01:25
But how do we set up a matrix?
00:01:28
You really should set up your test matrix ahead of time before you collect data.
00:01:30
In my experiment, it's pretty simple since I only have two factors of interest, the display
00:01:34
type and the age of the pilots, and I have two levels for each of these factors.
00:01:38
For the display type, I have a new display and an old display, and for the age of the
00:01:43
pilots, I have younger and older pilots.
00:01:46
Your matrix helps you organize your data so you can look at it, analyze it, and understand
00:01:49
what's important about your problem.
00:01:53
We can look at the data and get an idea about the source.
00:01:55
Thanks a lot for all your help.
00:01:58
Now we might be able to actually make some sense of all this.
00:01:59
Thanks for stopping by.
00:02:03
Good luck!
