Question 6问题6Buehler and colleagues asked a group of 37 university students to estimate, as accurately as possible, how many days it would take them to submit their finished honours thesis. Their average prediction was 34 days. They also asked each student to predict when they would complete the thesis "if everything went as well as it possibly could" and "if everything went as poorly as it possibly could."
