The further experiment would consist of testing the performance of the students that consume alcohol versus students that don't consume alcohol. Finally, the results obtained from the experiment must be analyzed by using a statistical measure such as, for example, the p-value, which enables to accept/reject the null hypothesis by assessing the significance level of the results.
