First Slide

For more details on the Simpsons Paradox, please check the link below https://sananand007.shinyapps.io/simpsonsparadox/ .

Every Simpson's paradox involves at least three variables:

• the explained
• the observed explanatory
• the lurking explanatory If the effect of the observed explanatory variable on the explained variable changes directions when you account for the lurking explanatory variable, you've got a Simpson's Paradox.
• The Simpson's Paradox is an idea that can explain and find faults in a number of data analysis by proper pooling of the data which can challenge reproducibility

Second Slide

For more details on the shiny app, please check the link below https://sananand007.shinyapps.io/simpsonsparadox/ .

• It shows the widgets being used to develop the Shiny app that is later shown as a Picture
• It also shows reactivity of graphs through the use of variable bar Plots
• It also shows how we can implement a rough version of Simpson's Paradox basic idea using a simple way
