Bush. This fifth table includes the results from Bush's seventy nine campaign speeches, based on the election winner variables of Familiarity, Optimism, Human Interest, and Realism frequencies. To read these tables, it is important to note that the seventy nine speeches are organized by month along the y-axis. Also shown on the y-axis are totals, means, and out of range labels. These calculations were done for each month and at the end, all seventy nine speeches were averaged according to these same calculations. Along the x-axis are the challenger variables of Familiarity, Optimism, Human Interest, and Realism frequencies. Frequency simply indicates how many times a word contained in the respective dictionary appears in a given speech. Standard deviation is significant in determining if the speech was out of range. Out of range could either be a high or low significance. Again, in this study, I was unable to perform the complex statistics involved regarding statistical significant and out of range situations. ~ ......

Kerry. This fifth table includes the results from Kerry's seventy nine campaign speeches, based on the election winner variables of Familiarity, Optimism, Human Interest, and Realism frequencies. To read these tables, it is important to note that the seventy nine speeches are organized by month along the y-axis. Also shown on the y-axis are totals, means, and out of range labels. These calculations were done for each month and at the end, all seventy nine speeches were averaged according to these same calculations. Along the x-axis are the challenger variables of Familiarity, Optimism, Human Interest, and Realism frequencies. Frequency simply indicates how many times a word contained in the respective dictionary appears in a given speech. Standard deviation is significant in determining if the speech was out of range. Out of range could either be a high or low significance. Again, in this study, I was unable to perform the complex statistics involved regarding statistical significant and out of range situations.
