Question

Case Study:A company’s research department finds that employees who get more than 8 hours of sleep per night tend to have higher productivity scores at work. The department concludes that more sleep directly leads to better productivity.

Which of the following is the best critique of the department’s conclusion?

Options

The conclusion is valid because the data shows a direct cause-and-effect relationship between sleep and productivity.

The conclusion is flawed because other factors, such as workload, work environment, or health, might also influence productivity, and the data does not account for these factors.

Lack of sleep is causing lower productivity, and the data supports the company’s conclusion.

The data is inconclusive because no correlation was found between sleep and productivity.
