Math and Predicting Human Behavior

 

            While many skeptics claim that human behavior can be too unpredictable therefore causing error in math, research has proven beyond any doubt that math successfully can predict human behavior. It's a known fact, for example, that throughout history geographic profiling via math has had a high success rate in tracking criminals. Another important argument supporting math as a tool to predict human behavior is data mining because it has been used to detected customer purchasing patterns. Furthermore, math can be used to predict the success of movies and the location of gang violence. Finally, math is used to predict problem solving times and the strategy.
             Math is everywhere; it is unavoidable. We trust math to do a lot of things. Math is used to hold up your house and even give you the right medication. If we can trust math with predicting our behavior then society will benefit and become easier to improve. This topic should be important to all of us if we would like to be able to understand the world around us. Math can help us understand why some movies are our favorite and why some can be flushed down the toilet. Fighting crime can become much easier when math is used. Recent studies like these shed new light on how math can benefit society, which previous studies had not addressed. When math is used to predict human behavior it improves society and our lifestyles. Ultimately, what is at stake here is if we want continue improving the world around us or to find another way.
             Math can have error in almost anything, but when math accounts for its own error, then the math can be certain to find the correct answer. Events can be predicted by math and human behavior is just a combination of events, therefore human behavior can be predicted by math. Some examples of events that can be predicted by math are things like gravity, comfort on a bed, and weather. Events of human behavior that can be predicted by math are criminal activity, shopping trips, movie experiences, gang violence, and problem-solving techniques.
