Dr beaker published the results of his most recent study in a scientific journal. He outlined his study and his procedures, data analysis, and conclusions. His study involved testing two individuals over a few weeks. His report met with a great of criticism and skeptical reviews from the scientific community. Which criterion was not met for dr beakers report to be considered scientific

Respuesta :

Answer:

Dr. Beaker had an incredibly small sample size of 2 individuals which therefore will translate to enormous sampling error in his results. This is because the sample size will not ideally be a good representation of the population size because his two individuals may be outliers in the population. A good sample size should be big enough to just represent the population and not too big to waste research resources.

The review by his peers (peer-review) is is important as a quality assurance for scientific research in the scientific community. Dr. Beakers' study will, therefore, find a hard time passing the test and will not be published in the scientific journal.
