This study involves a tricky question about a fictitious study on skin cream and how people, based on their numeracy, interpret the data. The findings show that higher numeracy helps people avoid intuitive but incorrect conclusions when reasoning with data. However, when political ideologies are introduced—specifically around a study on gun control—people's biases skew their reasoning, regardless of their numeracy. The study underscores the powerful influence of political beliefs on data interpretation and the importance of fostering a curious mindset to overcome biases.</span>\n</div>\n<div class='action-container flex justify-between'>\n<button aria-expanded='false' aria-label='Read more description' class='rp-full-description' type='button'>\n<i class='fai fa-solid fa-align-left'></i>\n<span id='read_more'>Read More</span>\n</button>\n<div class='rp-report'>\n</div>\n</div>\n<div aria-labelledby='resource-details-heading' class='rp-info-section'>\n<h2 class='title' id='resource-details-heading'>Resource Details</h2>\n<div class='rp-resource-details clearfix'>\n<div class='detail'>\n<dl>\n<dt>Curator Rating</dt>\n<dd><span class=\"star-rating\" aria-label=\"4.0 out of 5 stars\" role=\"img\"><i class=\"fa-solid fa-star text-action\" aria-hidden=\"true\"></i><i class=\"fa-solid fa-star text-action\" aria-hidden=\"true\"></i><i class=\"fa-solid fa-star text-action\" aria-hidden=\"true\"></i><i class=\"fa-solid fa-star text-action\" aria-hidden=\"true\"></i><i class=\"fa-regular fa-star text-action\" aria-hidden=\"true\"></i></span></dd>\n</dl>\n</div>\n<div class='detail'>\n<dl>\n<dt class=\"educator-rating-title\">Educator Rating</dt><dd><div class=\"educator-rating-details\" data-path=\"/educator_ratings/rrp_data?resourceable_id=87414619&amp;resourceable_type=Boclips%3A%3AVideoMetadata\"><span class=\"not-yet-rated\">Not yet Rated</span></div></dd>\n</dl>\n</div>\n<div class='detail'>\n<dl>\n<dt>Media Length</dt>\n<dd>12:21</dd>\n</dl>\n</div>\n<div class='detail'>\n<dl>\n<dt>Grade</dt><dd title=\"Grade\">9th - Higher Ed</dd>\n</dl>\n</div>\n<div class='detail'>\n<dl>\n<dt>Subjects</dt><dd><span><a href=\"/search?keywords=linear+relationships&amp;page=3&amp;search_tab_id=1&amp;subject_ids%5B%5D=365221\">Science</a></span></dd><dd class=\"text-muted\"><i class=\"fa-solid fa-lock mr5\"></i>4 more...</dd>\n</dl>\n</div>\n<div class='detail'>\n<dl>\n<dt>Media Type</dt><dd><span><a href=\"/search?keywords=linear+relationships&amp;page=3&amp;search_tab_id=2&amp;type_ids%5B%5D=4543647\">Instructional Videos</a></span></dd>\n</dl>\n</div>\n<div class='detail'>\n<dl>\n<dt>Source:</dt>\n<div class='preview-source' data-animation='true' data-boundary='.rp-info' data-container='.rp-resource-details' data-html='false' data-title='An element of truth - videos about science, education, and anything else I find interesting.' data-trigger='hover focus'>\n<span>Veritasium</span>\n<i aria-hidden='true' class='fa-solid fa-circle-info channel-tooltip-icon' id='channel-tooltip'></i>\n</div>\n</dl>\n</div>\n<div class='detail'>\n<dl>\n<dt>Date</dt>\n<dd>2024</dd>\n</dl>\n</div>\n<div class='detail'>\n<dl>\n<i aria-hidden='true' class='fai fa-solid fa-language'></i>\n<dt>Language</dt><dd>English</dd>\n</dl>\n</div>\n<div class='detail'>\n<dl>\n<dt>Audiences</dt><dd><span><a href=\"/search?audience_ids%5B%5D=371079&amp;keywords=linear+relationships&amp;page=3&amp;search_tab_id=1\">For Teacher Use</a></span></dd><dd class=\"text-muted\"><i class=\"fa-solid fa-lock mr5\"></i>2 more...</dd>\n</dl>\n</div>\n<div class='detail'>\n<dl>\n<dt>Usage Permissions</dt><dd>Fine Print: Educational Use</dd>\n</dl>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n<div aria-labelledby='additional-materials-heading' class='rp-info-section'>\n<h2 class='title' id='additional-materials-heading'>Additional Materials</h2>\n<div class='additional-material'>\n<i aria-hidden='true' class='fai fa-solid fa-lock'></i>\n<a class=\"text-muted\" title=\"Video Transcript\" data-html=\"true\" data-placement=\"bottom\" data-trigger=\"click\" data-content=\"<div class=&quot;text-center py-2&quot;><a class=&quot;bold&quot;
