Rating

As part of the survey where they rated characters, users were also asked the question "How do you rate The Hunger Games?". The distribution of their responses are below.

# Response Count
1 It's the worst 22
2 It's bad 52
3 It's okay 1953
4 It's good 7098
5 It's my favorite 1857

This gives it an average score of 3.98 / 5. Making it 133rd out of the 342 universes in the dataset ordered by rating.

The average rating may be hard to generalize though, the users of one online personality quiz could not be representative of the population in important ways. And there are some very obvious things you can point to: users of this quiz are more likely to be young and more likely to be women.

There are several different ways that average ratings can be broken down. Here are average scores by gender:

Gender Average rating
Male 3.84
Female 3.99

The responses to the personality quiz can also be cross referenced with the universe ratings to see how personality affects it. The table below show the correlation between a user's response to a specific self report item and their rating of this universe.
