What is the difference between correlation and causation? How can researchers actually know when one thing CAUSES another? We received questions like these in response to our episode on reading fiction. So, today we discuss how researchers can establish causality as we revisit the research on reading fiction.

Ep. 13 - Correlation vs. Causation (Fiction revisited)

Scientific research is more accessible now than ever before. Research has the potential to help us live better, happier lives. However, it can be hard to find and hard to understand. We take relevant research and describe it in a simple and exciting way that can be understood by anyone who is looking to make positive changes in their life. 

Ben &amp; McKay are students at Brigham Young University. We are studying psychology and neuroscience, and have multiple years of research experience as research assistants.
