Full topic overview
A formal inference makes a justified statement about a population from a sample, while being honest about sampling variability. This standard (AS91582) uses bootstrapping — resampling the data to build a confidence interval — and then compares two groups to make a call about which population median is greater. You also need to correctly interpret the confidence interval in context, decide whether a call can be made, and discuss the scope and limitations of the conclusion.
