exactly. one third had no arousal. one third of the total population is statistically too large to ignore. there is something flawed in taking the findings from two thirds and applying them to the entire population.

for example:
two thirds of my neighborhood is white. one third is not. should i generalize about the entire neighborhood based only on the white residents?
no.

interesting study. but it's shown that the methodology needs to be reworked.
