What's the term called for this?
I don't know how to explain this enough to get any kind of decent results from the search engine.
What's it called when just by researching something you affect to results of the test. I can't really give a good example but I'll try.
Someone is testing to see what their average heart rate is, but by having the heart monitor on, their heartbeat raises and blood pressure rises, but there's no way you can prove that that the heart rate rises without some kind of monitor.
A friend brought this up a few days ago and I remember reading something about it here a long long time ago. He's since sobered up and doesn't care anymore but It's still stuck in my head and I've just got to know what it's called, and a few better examples of how it's applied..,
