CORRELATION DIMENSIONS OF HUMAN-GENERATED RANDOM NUMBERS

We tried to approach the random number generation test as an applicati on of chaos analysis. The randomness of numbers was well represented b y their correlation dimensions calculated by Judd's method. We tried f our methods of random number generation, and two of them (writing and verbal) measured the activity of creating randomness in numbers. The o ther two methods, which input the numbers to the computers directly, m easured the activity of creating randomness in space. The comparison o f age dependencies indicated that creating randomness in space is easi er than that in numbers.
