INTERACTIVE DATA MAPS BY 'SUNSHINEBOOM.'

-Comparisons of popular Mandela Effects vs common misspellings taken from Google Trends across multiple countries gives evidence against the bad memory explanation of the Mandela Effect here.

-Then using data from the above chart we explore ME Affectedness across countries:

These numbers (from the above previous chart) were normalized and averaged for each country. Then, the number of different MEs was normalized across all countries. These two figures are then multiplied to get a ME prevalence score. (The raw ME score is the same without normalizing the number of MEs per country).  Then, both ME scores to some selected variables were compared, like GDP in $, number of English speakers, etc. to see how strongly correlated they are. The r-squared and p-values are statistical indicators, and can be viewed by hovering over the trend lines.  The p-value indicates if there is a significant relationship described by the model, and the R-squared measures the degree to which the data is explained by the model.

Lower p-values indicate more significance, and higher r-squared values indicate a greater percentage of the data points being explained by the model. Both range from 0 to 1.

-Popularity of Bernstein, Berenstein, and Berenstain spellings across time and USA states here (and backup copy of same thing here.)

-Time series of American searches shows the relative frequency of searches between the "current version" and "reported ME version(s)" (sometimes there are more than one though) of different ME subjects, from 1/1/2004 to 3/1/2019 here.  And same data presented another way here.
