Thanks! Just to check I’ve understood, these are all people who had no previous exposure to the LW community before you said “hey, why don’t you read this thing”?
Do you have any conjectures about how the results might have been different if HPMOR hadn’t existed and instead you’d pointed them at the LW website, or the “Sequences”, or some non-LW resource with related content (e.g., one of the various books about irrationality and cognitive biases and the like)?
