Statistical Enquiry Cycle Interpretation of Results
Interpretation of results involves: (1) analysing diagrams and calculations, (2) drawing conclusions related to original questions and hypotheses, (3) using appropriate tests to determine statistical significance, (4) discussing reliability of findings, and (5) communicating clearly to target audiences.

Exam Focus
Always contextualise conclusions in the scenario's language; never just write 'reject H₀' without interpreting what it means.
