Does anyone else teach correlation and regression together at the end of the semester? Here is a treat for you: Updated data on Leonardo DiCaprio, his age, and his romantic partner's age when they started dating. A few years ago, there was a dust-up when a clever Redditor r/TrustLittleBrother realized that DiCaprio had never dated anyone over 25. I blogged about this when it happened. But the old data was from 2022. Inspired by this sleuthing,  I created a wee data set, including up-to-date information on his current relationship with Vittoria Ceretti, so your students can suss out the patterns that exist in this data.

One of my favorite upper-level elective courses to teach is Positive Psychology. I recently came across a comprehensive account of various facets of how positive psychology can be assessed in nations:  https://ourworldindata.org/happiness-and-life-satisfaction . Like, the website is just great. Below is an example of the data you can explore, in various formats, animation options, and you can download the data. It is great! From this website, I download loaded and compiled two data sets that caputure GDP, Cantrill Ladder Score, and life span data for hella countries. You can perform a variety of significant and non-significant correlations and regressions using this data. Additionally, the countries are divided into six regions, allowing you to conduct some one-way ANOVAs with your students.  Here is the data, compiled by my awesome RA, Maddie:  https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/129NQcPdFwZjyzZAJdX6odKC7KiFk_Q1Lqa-SD4kk5FQ/edit?usp=sharing
