Podcasts about Statistics

Joseph Gfroerer spent nearly 40 years working as a statistician for the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). Starting in 1988, when the American drug war was taking its current shape, he led the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), one of the federal government's largest and most important ongoing health surveys that tracks Americans' use of illegal drugs, prescription drugs, alcohol and tobacco. War Stories from the Drug Survey: How Culture, Politics, and Statistics Shaped the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (Cambridge UP, 2018), written after he retired, shows where the survey came from, details how it gathers information, and tracks the impact that the shifting cultural and political climate surrounding drug use played on how these statistics were understood. Gfroerer provides necessary insight on what drug use statistics have meant, how they've been used (and misused), and what this means for our understanding of drug use in America today. Emily Dufton is the author of Grass Roots: The Rise and Fall and Rise of Marijuana in America (Basic Books, 2017). A drug historian and writer, her second book, on the development of the opioid addiction medication industry, is under contract with the University of Chicago Press. Learn more about your ad choices.

81. 83. 49. 66. What do these figures have in common? They all relate to burnout--that sense of being utterly depleted, worn out, and chronically exhausted. Recent research shows that work burnout affects 81% of those between ages 18 - 24, 83% of those who are 25 - 34, and 49% of those over 55. When averaged, a whopping 66 percent of working adults report experiencing burnout. Even worse, these figures don't account for groups such as full-time (stay-at-home) parents, family caregivers, and undocumented workers who often experience significant levels of stress and burnout. And while there is no magic cure for burnout, there are steps we can take to minimize the stress and negative cycles that tend to feed the burnout phenomenon. Join Dr. Carla and seasoned burnout expert Janice Litvin who will give us well-honed tools to help us stop burnout in its tracks--and move forward in healthy ways. Topics discussed include self-awareness, self-care, burnout, stress, journaling, intergenerational patterns, family dynamics, work environment, work, bosses, human resources, support, full-time caregivers, stay-at-home parents, full-time parenting, commute, working from home, work environment, human resources, community support, mentors, support groups, burnout prevention, self-assessment, empowerment, personal power, over-reacting, triggers, victim mentality, attitude, empowerment, and personal power. *Statistics referenced can be found here.Please note that this episode contains sensitive material; listener discretion is advised.Emergency Assistance Note: If you or someone you know needs immediate support, please call your emergency services.

Motorcyclists love the freedom of the open road. But freedom isn't free, and sometimes the price incautious riders pay after a crash is severe brain injury or even death; both, the statistics tell us, are avoidable by wearing a helmet certified by testing. Outfitting with appropriate riding gear is key to maximizing the odds of--literally--walking away from a motorcycle crash. Today, we talk to Hong Zhang, director of education for the Snell Foundation--a leading national nonprofit dedicated to setting the most effective helmet safety standards--and TTI's Cathy Brooks, project specialist in the Institute's Road User Safety Program. | For more information on the Snell Foundation

Every single day, we're confronted with more information than we could possibly verify. So how do we ever know we're right? And what do we do when we find out we're wrong? This week on Everyday Better, professor Alex Edmans shares why you're probably less open-minded than you think—and what you can do about it. As a researcher, Alex loves data. But after witnessing firsthand our tendency to cherry-pick the data we want to be true, he began searching for a better way to find truth in an era of information overload. In this conversation, Alex breaks down our most common mental biases and shares the steps you can take to confront them. He also explains why challenging our beliefs is the key to living a freer, more self-led life.

Years of efforts aimed at promoting the country's opening-up and continuously expanding market access for foreign enterprises have gradually paid off. Foreign-funded enterprises now contribute one-third of China's foreign trade, one-fourth of its value-added industrial output, and one-seventh of its tax revenues, and have created more than 30 million jobs over the past five years. It is little wonder therefore that the government should highly value foreign direct investment and always try its best to improve the business environment for foreign capital, so as to make the country a safe and promising destination for foreign investors.多年来，为促进国家对外开放和不断扩大外资企业市场准入所做的努力逐渐取得成效。外资企业目前占中国对外贸易的三分之一，工业增加值的四分之一，税收的七分之一，在过去五年中创造了3000多万个就业机会。因此，毫不奇怪，政府应该高度重视外国直接投资，并始终尽最大努力改善外国资本的商业环境，使该国成为外国投资者的安全和有前景的目的地。The country's 14th Five-Year Plan from 2021 to 2025 set the target of attracting a total of $700 billion in foreign investment, with remarkable progress to be made in both the quantity and quality of utilized foreign investment. Despite the challenges posed by the rise of protectionism and unilateralism in recent years, the utilized foreign investment in China reached $708.73 billion by the end of June, suggesting the country has already achieved its five-year foreign investment target, ahead of schedule.2021年至2025年，中国第十四个五年计划设定了吸引7000亿美元外资的目标，利用外资的数量和质量都将取得显著进展。尽管近年来保护主义和单边主义抬头带来了挑战，但截至6月底，中国利用外资已达7087.3亿美元，表明中国已提前实现其五年外资目标。Statistics from the Ministry of Commerce released on the weekend also indicate that in the first half of this year the number of newly established foreign-invested companies increased by 11.7 percent year-on-year to 30,014, as the country continues to attract foreign capital into high-tech industries such as artificial intelligence, e-commerce, pharmaceuticals and high-end manufacturing.商务部周末发布的统计数据还显示，今年上半年，随着国家继续吸引外资进入人工智能、电子商务、制药和高端制造业等高科技产业，新成立的外商投资企业数量同比增长11.7%，达到30014家。The country's high-tech sector has become a major magnet for foreign capital thanks to its immense potential, with the percentage of utilized foreign investment in China's high-tech sector rising from 28.3 percent of the total in 2019 to 37.4 percent in 2023. In the first half of this year, foreign investment in e-commerce services alone recorded a nearly 130 percent year-on-year surge.由于其巨大的潜力，中国的高科技行业已成为吸引外资的主要力量，中国高科技行业利用外资的比例从2019年的28.3%上升到2023年的37.4%。今年上半年，仅电子商务服务领域的外国投资就同比激增近130%。The development of a highly advanced innovation ecosystem in China has prompted a lot of multinationals to expand their investment in the sector in light of the country's forward-looking strategy. Take BMW for example. The German auto giant plans to establish its first China-based information technology research and development center in Nanjing, which will represent a huge expansion of the company's digital capabilities. The center is set to be BMW's largest IT R&D hub in Asia, and it is designed to strengthen the automaker's global production, sales and after-sales systems through digital solutions rooted in China's rapidly evolving tech landscape. Explaining the decision, Franz Decker, president and CEO of BMW Brilliance Automotive, said during the signing ceremony with the local government on Friday that China "demonstrates remarkable vitality in building a thriving ecosystem for digital innovation".中国高度发达的创新生态系统的发展促使许多跨国公司根据国家的前瞻性战略扩大了对该行业的投资。以宝马为例。这家德国汽车巨头计划在南京建立其第一个中国信息技术研发中心，这将代表该公司数字能力的巨大扩张。该中心将成为宝马在亚洲最大的IT研发中心，旨在通过植根于中国快速发展的技术格局的数字解决方案，加强宝马的全球生产、销售和售后系统。华晨宝马汽车公司总裁兼首席执行官Franz Decker在周五与当地政府的签字仪式上解释了这一决定，他表示，中国“在建立繁荣的数字创新生态系统方面表现出了非凡的活力”。The third China International Supply Chain Expo, which concluded on Sunday in Beijing, has earned a reputation for being a showcase for technological innovation and China's new quality productive forces. The expo highlighted how the country has embraced an innovation-driven development strategy in pursuit of high-quality development, which is expected to bring immense business opportunities for foreign companies. "Here in China ... the technology adoption is so fast," said Jensen Huang, Nvidia CEO, during an interview on the sidelines of the expo, citing how China's innovative applications are setting global trends. "The supply chain of China is a miracle. It is the largest and most complex in the world ... built on deep technology, AI and software."第三届中国国际供应链博览会于周日在北京闭幕，以展示技术创新和中国新型优质生产力而闻名。世博会强调了中国如何采取创新驱动的发展战略，追求高质量的发展，这有望为外国公司带来巨大的商机。英伟达首席执行官黄仁勋在世博会间隙接受采访时表示：“在中国……技术采用如此之快。”他引用了中国创新应用如何引领全球趋势。“中国的供应链是一个奇迹。它是世界上最大、最复杂的……建立在深厚的技术、人工智能和软件之上。”There have been some pointing to the actual use of FDI in China dropping 15.2 percent in the January-June period from a year earlier. Yet it should be noted that was amid a global decline in foreign investment, and the total volume of utilized FDI in China is 423.23 billion yuan, which remains significant. The decline can be attributed to the high comparison base last year. Any attempt to hype that foreign investment is leaving the country is out of ill intent.有人指出，1月至6月期间，中国实际使用的外国直接投资比去年同期下降了15.2%。然而，应该指出的是，在全球外国投资下降的情况下，中国利用的外国直接投资总额为4232.3亿元，仍然很可观。这一下降可归因于去年的高比较基数。任何炒作外国投资正在离开该国的企图都是出于恶意。In the past five years, the rate of return on FDI in China, at nearly 9 percent, still ranks among the highest around the world. It is the consensus among foreign investors that China remains an attractive destination for investment, not only because of its huge growth prospects, but also due to consistent government support aimed at enabling foreign-funded enterprises to achieve even greater success, as exemplified in an action plan that China released early this year to stabilize foreign investment.在过去的五年里，中国的外国直接投资回报率接近9%，仍然是世界上最高的。外国投资者普遍认为，中国仍然是一个有吸引力的投资目的地，这不仅是因为其巨大的增长前景，还因为政府一贯支持外资企业取得更大的成功，正如中国今年年初发布的一项稳定外国投资的行动计划所证明的那样。No matter how the external environment may evolve, China remains firmly committed to high-standard opening-up and always welcomes foreign companies to keep investing in China and explore the Chinese market to enjoy the country's development dividends and progress together.无论外部环境如何变化，中国都坚定地致力于高标准的对外开放，始终欢迎外国公司继续在中国投资，开拓中国市场，共同享受国家的发展红利和进步。multinationaln.跨国公司/ˌmʌltɪˈnæʃənəl/remarkable vitalityn.非凡的生命力/rɪˈmɑːkəbl vaɪˈtælɪti/

This week on Driving Law, Kyla Lee and Paul Doroshenko unpack a major BC Supreme Court decision that strikes down an Immediate Roadside Prohibition due to flawed and speculative reasoning by the Superintendent's office. The case involved a driver who claimed that chewing tobacco remained in his mouth during a breath test. The adjudicator dismissed his explanation based on assumptions about police training and stereotypical beliefs about how a person “should” behave. The court rejected this reasoning, calling it unjustified, unintelligible, and lacking transparency. Kyla and Paul explain why this decision is a rare but important win against the reverse-engineered logic often used to uphold IRPs. Next, they discuss a Toronto Sun article claiming BC has the highest rate of impaired driving in Canada. Despite the province's “toughest drunk driving laws,” the data may reflect the sheer volume of IRPs issued—not actual impairment. They explore whether the statistics signal a policy failure and question the effectiveness of deterrence in the absence of routine enforcement. Finally, the Ridiculous Driver of the Week is a Minnesota man who fled a DUI investigation by hiding in a river and covering himself in mud—hoping to avoid detection, Predator-style. He was found and arrested. Check out the 'Lawyer Told Me Not To Talk To You' T-shirts and hoodies at Lawyertoldme.com and 'Sit Still Jackson' at sitstilljackson.com.

The health of the world's oceans is a growing concern but measuring ocean health is a complicated undertaking. Some people studying the issue focus on pollution, while others look at the health of corals or marine mammals. One project attempts to take a comprehensive picture of the health of oceans in order to provide information about Oceanic vital signs to stakeholders. The Ocean Health Index is the focus of this episode of Stats+Stories with guests Lelys Bravo and Julia Stewart Lowndes. Lelys Bravo is a Statistics Professor at the Department of Statistics at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Before that she was a member of the Science Steering Committee of the Biospherical Aspects of the Hydrological Cycle project from the International Geosphere-Biosphere Program (IGBP) and Lead author of the Millenium Ecosystem Assessment report. Her research interests include spatial and temporal analysis of environmental data, including the development of risk assessment methods to evaluate the impacts of natural hazards under potential climate change. Julia Stewart Lowndes (@juliesquid) is a marine ecologist, data scientist, and Senior Fellow at the National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (NCEAS) at the University of California Santa Barbara. She champions kinder, better science in less time through open data science and teamwork. As a marine data scientist, Mozilla Fellow, and Senior Fellow at NCEAS, she has 7+ years designing and leading programs to empower science teams with skillsets and mindsets for reproducible research, empowering researchers with existing open tools and communities. She has been building communities of practice in this space since 2013 with the Ocean Health Index.

What if the very thought of pregnancy or giving birth filled you with terror — not just discomfort or anxiety, but real, paralyzing fear?In this episode, Erika and Kristen explore tokophobia, an often-overlooked condition defined by the Cleveland Clinic as an extreme fear of childbirth. Tokophobia can affect people so severely that they may go to great lengths to avoid pregnancy altogether. For those who do become pregnant, the fear can overshadow what many new parents expect to be a joyful time. We unpack the psychological and cultural roots of this condition, share firsthand accounts from those living with it, and discuss how tokophobia intersects the choice to remain childfree. Whether you've experienced this fear yourself, or are just hearing about it for the first time, this episode offers validation, insight, and a fresh perspective on reproductive autonomy.In This Episode, We Cover:

This week on That Tech Pod, Laura and Kevin sit down with Emily Chase Coleman, a leading voice in higher ed analytics, to talk about how data, AI, and shifting policy are transforming the college experience.We kick things off with a look at predictive analytics in enrollment and financial aid. Emily shares the most common misconceptions schools still have about AI, and how generative tools are forcing colleges to rethink academic integrity, fairness, and even the rules around who gets to use AI, and when.As the conversation turns to policy and student loans, Emily weighs in on recent headlines about aid cuts and loan forgiveness battles. She explains how these changes are already affecting how institutions plan for the future, and why equity needs to be at the center of it. We also talk about cybersecurity and student privacy. With ransomware attacks on the rise and more schools moving to the cloud, Emily talks about how institutions can balance being data-driven with protecting student information. Spoiler: most aren't investing enough in cyber defenses. We also look ahead to the next decade. What does the “smart campus” of 2035 look like? How can colleges move from being data-aware to truly data-informed? And if Emily could change just one thing about how universities use data today, what would it be?Emily Chase Coleman is a visionary in higher education analytics, reshaping how institutions use data to drive strategy. As the Co-founder and CEO of HAI Analytics Inc., she helps colleges and universities make informed, data-backed decisions about enrollment, financial aid, and student success. With over 20 years in higher education leadership and a PhD in Social Psychology and Statistics from Cornell, Emily is uniquely positioned to bridge the gap between data science and institutional strategy.At HAI Analytics, Emily is leading the charge in making predictive modeling and data visualization tools more accessible to university decision-makers. Her team has developed an innovative software-with-service platform, empowering institutions to use analytics for long-term sustainability without relying on full-time consultants. Emily is also a strong advocate for education reform, challenging outdated models in admissions and financial aid. She critiques the high-price, high-discount tuition system for exacerbating socioeconomic disparities and pushes for test-optional admissions to promote equity in college access.Beyond higher education, Emily champions women in leadership and tech, sharing insights from her journey as a female founder in edtech and data analytics. She is passionate about increasing representation in STEM and creating pathways for women entrepreneurs.Support a Good Cause:All proceeds from That Tech Pod merch sales during July and August will be donated to the victims of the Camp Mystic tragedy.

The Amazon has been imagined as a pristine wilderness, one in need of protection from development. This framing has often treated the Amazon as a place without history, practically untouched before the arrival of colonizers in South America. Statistics is helping show the history is much more complicated than that and it's the focus of this episode of Stats and Stories with guest Dani Gamerman. Gamerman is Emeritus Professor at Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, where he was professor of statistics from 1996 to 2019. He is the author of numerous books and research papers, and the StatPop blog. He was one of two statisticians who worked on a Science paper showing evidence of manmade earthworks deep in heart of Amazonia and is also the author of a Significance article examining the use of statistics to map this hidden history of the Amazon.

“A faithful man will abound with blessings, but whoever hastens to be rich will not go unpunished.” - Proverbs 28:20Powerball jackpots and scratch-off tickets might seem like a shortcut to financial freedom, but should Christians be buying in? Dr. David W. Jones returns to our financial ethics series today to help us think biblically about the lottery and whether it aligns with a life of faithful stewardship.Dr. David W. Jones is Senior Professor of Christian Ethics at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. He holds a Ph.D. in Christian Financial Ethics and is the author of Every Good Thing: An Introduction to the Material World and the Common Good for Christians.Quick Wealth vs. Steady StewardshipProverbs 13:11 warns, “Wealth gained hastily will dwindle, but whoever gathers little by little will increase it.” Hebrews 13:5 exhorts believers to “keep your life free from the love of money and be content with what you have.” These passages highlight the value of work, patience, and contentment—virtues that stand in direct contrast to the quick-fix allure of lottery winnings.The lottery promises flourishing without labor, but God's design in Genesis 1 calls us to be co-creators with Him—to work, to produce, and to flourish through effort. Skipping that process isn't just unwise—it violates God's design for human flourishing.Is playing the lottery merely harmless entertainment? We should pay close attention to what our financial decisions reveal: Jesus taught, ‘Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also' (Matt. 6:21). If someone regularly spends money on lottery tickets, it could point to deeper issues—discontentment, greed, or misplaced hope.Scripture reminds us in Proverbs 23:7, “As a man thinks in his heart, so is he.” Our actions—including how we spend—are often the most honest indicators of our spiritual condition.Entertainment or Exploitation?While scratching a ticket at a birthday party may seem harmless, there's a big difference between a one-time event and a habitual lifestyle of gambling. And even if the act is permissible, that doesn't make it wise (1 Cor. 10:23).We must also consider the industry behind the lottery. It preys upon the poor. Statistics show that the lowest-income Americans buy more than half of all lottery tickets, with some spending up to 6% of their income. In many ways, it functions like a regressive tax, taking from those who can least afford it.Some believers wonder whether it's ethical to accept scholarships or grants funded by state lotteries. Of course, there's room for Christian liberty here. Some will choose to opt-out due to conscience. Others will recognize we live in a fallen world and may receive such benefits without directly participating in the system. Either way, we should be aware of what we're engaging with and remain open before the Lord.A Better Way to FlourishIf you're feeling convicted, confess it to the Lord. ‘If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us' (1 John 1:9). And as with any area of struggle, don't walk alone. Seek accountability and encouragement through your local church.Ultimately, the Christian life invites us to a different kind of richness—one rooted not in luck or chance but in trust and obedience. As Ecclesiastes 3:13 says, “Everyone should eat and drink and take pleasure in all his toil—this is God's gift to man.”For more biblical insight on wealth and stewardship, pick up Dr. David W.

Bobby and Alex kick off a loaded episode of the show by updating the jersey patch rankings after the news that the Nats have sold their jersey sponsorship to AARP. Then, they dissect Rob Manfred's bad-faith comments about the state of labor in baseball, before simply laughing at the fact that John Fisher cannot seem to build one single ballpark without having multiple funding crises. Finally, they react to the reports that MLB and ESPN have somehow resumed talks to extend their broadcasting partnership, and close by discussing Guardians pitcher Luis Ortiz being placed on paid leave while the league conducts an investigation into irregular gambling activity on two pitches he threw earlier this year.Links:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TP Kansas City Meetup Form⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join the Tipping Pitches Patreon ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tipping Pitches merchandise ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Call the Tipping Pitches voicemail: 785-422-5881Tipping Pitches features original music from Steve Sladkowski of PUP.

Have you ever asked yourself: "Do I find myself focusing more on what I don't want in my marriage, rather than sharing what I truly need or hope for?" "Am I recognizing and attempting to meet my wife's deep needs to feel seen, heard, and safe?" "Am I honestly communicating my needs and working with my spouse to understand hers?" One of the most powerful shifts came from understanding that men and women have fundamentally different needs in marriage. Men crave respect, appreciation, and affection. Women need to be seen, heard, and feel safe. If these needs aren't met, resentment can brew silently for years, eroding the relationship from within. Turning 50 is a milestone—it marks not only the passage of time but also a treasure trove of life lessons. On this episode of The Dad Edge Podcast, Larry Hagner shares the advice he wishes he'd had in his early days of marriage and fatherhood. Larry opens up about his fears before marrying his college sweetheart—a perspective shaped by his own experiences growing up around divorce and dysfunctional relationships. For years, he worried marriage would end in resentment, disconnection, or eventual separation. But with 20 years under his belt, Larry has discovered that extraordinary marriages don't happen by accident; they're the result of effort, self-awareness, and learning new relationship skills. If you've ever struggled with self-doubt, felt lost in marriage or fatherhood, or wished for a community of men who just get it, this episode is for you. Stay tuned as Larry kicks off a four-part July series reflecting on marriage, parenting, wealth, health, and perspective—all with the goal of helping you live legendary. Become the best husband you can: https://bit.ly/deamarriageyoutube In this vital conversation, we dig into: Your Marriage Doesn't Have to “Go Dry”: Most of us didn't grow up seeing functional relationships. Larry candidly discusses how he almost let the fear of divorce and dysfunction keep him from marrying the woman he truly loved—and why that perspective was dead wrong. The Power of Active Love (from Your Kids' Perspective): This week's episode features a spontaneous cameo from Larry's 11-year-old son, Lawson! He shares—with humor and honesty—how seeing his parents in a loving relationship makes him feel happy and safe at home. It's a heartfelt reminder: how you show up with your spouse is what your kids truly remember. No More Content Zombie Syndrome: We all absorb tons of self-development podcasts and books. But unless we commit to consistently practicing what we learn—and DO the work—the needle doesn't move. Larry talks about the critical difference between knowing what to do and actually doing it. Find Your Corner Men: Whether you're a nine-to-fiver or a business owner, Larry stresses the importance of having men in your corner—mentors ahead of you, peers beside you, and those you can teach. We rise together, and having the right tribe accelerates every area of our lives. Whether you're married, a new dad, or a seasoned father, this episode is packed with relatable stories and actionable advice that could save your marriage and strengthen your home. Here's what research and observation highlight about marriages: Only 12% of people who still are married can actually identify their relationship as working and they're happy. Statistics have shown that when a woman says out loud, "I think we should separate," or "I think we should get divorced," she's been thinking that for a minimum of two years. www.thedadedge.com/friday215 www.thedadedge.com/mastermind
