A coworker and I are discussing if the level of FO is always relative to the level of FA. If you FA to level 3 would you FO level 3, or would it resemble a Bell curve and have some under reaction and some over reaction. What's the OT's thoughts?

Ask the guy who played a prank and got shot in the stomach.

So you want to know if FA is directly proportional to FO. Well, FA and FO.

Sometimes you'll frick around an inordinate amount, get lucky, and not find out at all.


Sometimes you'll frick around a little bit, and find out a LOTTA bit.


But, frick around long enough, wrong enough, and the find out will come.

Blee dat.

Definitely a Bell Curve

Inconclusive. Everyone has varying degrees of tolerance.

The science was settled long ago.

You are correct, this question can best be answer by a Bell curve illustration.

And it really depends on where you are located.

2.05% of the time the FO is 200% less than the FA
Canada-You give a guy a wet willy and he apologizes, starts crying, and pisses himself.

13.7% of the time the FO is 50% less than the FA.
San Francisco - You give a guy a wet willy and he starts laughing and asks you out on a date.

68.2% of the time the FO is relatively equal to the FA.
Northeast/Southwest - You give a guy a wet willy and get punched in the shoulder or cussed out.

13.7% of the time the FO is 50% greater than the FA.
Midwest - You give a guy a wet willy and he beats the hell out of you.

2.05% of the time the FO is 200% greater than the FA.
Deep South & Texas - You give a guy a wet willy and you get shot in the stomach.

Probably exponential.

Some responses are definitely not proportional to the original stimulus.

So easily we recognize the ratio of FA:FO is not linear.

To attempt to graphically express the outcomes, I would estimate it to be in practice more along the lines of a spatial network (aka a geometric graph).

And can widely vary upon region, population, and window of tolerance.

Exhibit A: Kids ding dong ditch a younger couple with kids of a similar age. Kids probably have their parents contacted or get a stern “talking to”.

Exhibit B: Kids ding dong ditch an old man who thinks the Castle Doctrine applies to kids ringing his doorbell. Kids get shot.
