Consider a situation that you might want to study through a statistical lens. The situation would require you to study a small sample and make an inference to the population. For example, you might want to understand how likely children are to complete their homework when considering their individual characteristics. Or, maybe you want to understand if children who eat broccoli are more likely to complete their homework than those who do not.

Respond to the following:

• How would you select a test that was appropriate to answer your question?
• How would you rule out tests that were not appropriate to answer your question?
