Produced by MEI on behalf of OCR © OCR 2013 Coming to a conclusion So you have asked an interesting question collected some relevant data done some calculations and presented the data in a helpful way How do you come to a conclusion?

Produced by MEI on behalf of OCR © OCR 2013 “The mean time to do the coordination test before drinking coffee was 36.8 s. The mean time to do the coordination test after drinking coffee was 36.9 s. So I conclude that drinking coffee makes peoples’ coordination worse.” Any comments about this conclusion? Significance Imagine an experiment to test whether drinking coffee changes the time it takes to perform a test of coordination.

Produced by MEI on behalf of OCR © OCR 2013 Significance “The mean time without the catalyst was 28.1 s. The mean time with the catalyst was 27.3 s. So I conclude that the catalyst speeds up the reaction.”

Produced by MEI on behalf of OCR © OCR 2013 Catalyst data Scenario A Times without catalyst Mean = 28.1 s Time with catalyst Mean = 27.3 s Scenario B Times without catalyst Mean = 28.1 s Time with catalyst Mean = 27.3 s

Produced by MEI on behalf of OCR © OCR 2013 Being certain In maths you can be sure that some things are always true; you can prove them. ‘If you add two odd numbers you always get an even number.’ In statistics you cannot be so certain. You collect evidence from a sample, and you come to a conclusion about the population. ‘There is good evidence to suggest that the catalyst speeds up the reaction.’ ‘There is not enough evidence to suggest that coffee affects coordination.’
