[quote=Anonymous]In reviews, people are reluctant to give 1’s and 2’s in general. If someone dislikes something they tend to give a 3. Thus, 3 becomes the new minimum value, more or less, over time. This means we are averaging a set of numbers between 3 and 5 which comes out to be 4.5, a much higher average than if people rated with 1’s and 2’s. [/quote]
