    The document analyzes responses from participants in several experiments involving numbers, drawings, and geometric shapes. It found that for numbers between 1-10 (excluding 3), responses clustered around 6-8 with a peak at 7, accounting for 62% of answers compared to the 30% expected by chance. For simple drawings, the most popular responses were house, circle, square, stick figure, triangle, boat, tree, and cat, covering 69% of drawings. For two-digit numbers from 10-90, there was a strong cluster at 21-23 peaking at 22 and a second cluster at 11-13 peaking at 12, making up 43% of responses against the 10% expected by chance.
