Answer:
The conclusion is false, because it is assuming that correlation = causation.
Explanation:
An important principle in statistical analysis is the principle that when correlation exist between two variables or more, it does not mean that one of the variables are causing the other to appear in a certain manner.
Remember that correlation means that you are investigating whether a relationships exists between two variables; in this example, as we can see, it is between the biodiversity in an ecosystem and the population of an insect.
The graph can be said to illustrate the result of the research; that as the biodiversity of the ecosystem goes down, the insect's population goes up. This is a form of negative correlation.
However - we do not know what is the direction of the relationship; the student concludes that as some insects die within the ecosystem, the researched insect's population goes up; assuming that the predator species died off and thus the researched insect's population increases.
Yet, it is also possible for the relationship to go towards the other direction; the researched insect population increases - perhaps by the introduction of a new food source that causes the species' population to increase - and thus, this damages the biodiversity of the ecosystem, making the population go down since it is possible that the researched insect is instead the species which is on top of the food chain at that ecosystem.
To investigate the direction of a relationship, further research need to be done and more sophisticated statistical methods need to be used.
The CGE's functions include: monitoring and evaluating the policies and practices of government, the private sector and other organisations to ensure that they promote and protect gender equality; public education and information; reviewing existing and upcoming legislation from a gender perspective; investigating . The mission of the Commission for Gender Equality (CGE) is to promote respect for gender equality and the protection, development and attainment of gender equality. The CGE advances, promotes and protects gender equality in South Africa through undertaking research, public education, policy development, legislative initiatives, effective monitoring and litigation.
Apartheid was a South African system of segregation by race.
Under this system many people of African decent faced discriminatory and oppressive political and economic practices.
Answer:
The correct answer is: A lower performer.
Explanation:
In organizational settings, low performers are usually individuals who had the potential to be top performers, but voluntarily or involuntarily sabotage themselves and end up under-achieving.
They usually criticize work-place and blame other colleagues when things go wrong.
They are willing to do the minimum necessary to keep the job and usually are not very pro-active and diligent.
In this particular case, Kyongji is slightly more productive than Bernadette but she refuses to work overtime, often expresses negative opinions about the organization, and is often late. Bernadette is often willing to work overtimeand seldom misses work. Kyongji is probably a lower performer than Bernadette.
