Question

Graphs function as premises, which present the data (assumed true), and that can be used to infer (or deduce) implications that follow from it. An implication is another way to refer to a conclusion: an implication is often hidden until the features of a set of data are mapped or diagrammed in some way. An implication is usually provisional, hypothetical, until some further investigation provides additional clues. Graph of Judicial Decisions correlated with time of day Favorable 40% rulings Number of cases heard This graph shows that favorable decisions are correlated with the time of day unfavorable rulings are made just before lunch and favorable rulings afterward. You might expect that a judge's decision would have something to do with how serious the crime was or how much time had been served already, or how many times a prisoner had gone to jail before. But these researchers found something else that had a huge effect on a judge's ruling: lunch. As you can see in the chart, the rate of favorable rulings starts at around 65% early in the day, then drops to almost zero, and then spikes back up again after the judges come back from lunch. Distinguísh plausible implications from implausible implications that can be drawn from this data:
