Question
Chapter 12, Problem AP4.17CPT
To determine
To find out does this study gives convincing evidence that being severely overweight causes a woman to have a lower income.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem AP4.17CPT
Option (e) is the correct option.
Explanation of Solution
By looking at the question, a study was conducted on women who are severely overweight suffer economic consequences or not. The result of the observation study tells us that there is an association between income and being severely overweight as the difference in average income is statistically significant. However, association does not mean causation because the cause could be another variable that was not included in the study as the study is an observational study. Thus, option (e) is the correct option.
