Document Summary
Researches have shown some degree of correlation: age, visual minority status - significant in crime and deviance. Putting forth labels: how much that variable adds to the overall. Maybe there is a correlation between depression and body image - but neglected to note that there was another associated factor that contributed to the issue and completes the correlation chain. Readability is equal to consistency: we can replicated the findings over and over and determine that the study results ae fairly definite and no further evidence or research is required. A and b are reliable since they are hitting the same place means they are getting the same findings over and over. Image a: hitting the centre of the board is accurate as it is intended. Image b: is not valid because the darts are consistently not hitting the centre as it should. Majority are unsure/unaware how to accurately answer this question.
