> median delay

Does that mean that half of responses have a negative delay? As in, humans interrupt each others sentences precisely half of the time?

I assume 0 delay is the minimum here, and a median of 0 means over half of the data are exactly 0.

  • No, about 1/2 of human speech is interrupting others.

    • oh, interesting, I assumed the data came from interruptions (that seemed obvious) but I'm surprised you had some specific negative measurements. How do you decide the magnitude of the number? Just counting how long both parties are talking?
