Q2:
Het klopt wat de student concludeert maar het is wel erg beperkt. Het is duidelijk dat er hier sprake is van seizoenaliteit gezien de grote schommelingen tussen de maanden. Zo zijn er in maanden 6,7 en 10 duidelijke hoogte- en dieptepunten. Eigenlijk had het beter geweest om hier ook nog iets te zeggen over de significantie van de schommelingen van de waarden voor de verschillende maanden via de notched box plots. Hieruit valt af te leiden dat de inkepingen van de opeenvolgende maanden van de notched box plots elkaar niet overlappen en bijgevolg de verschillen niet toewijsbaar zijn aan toeval.
Q3:
Je kan inderdaad zien dat de medianen dalen over de jaren heen. Hieruit kunnen we echter nog geen algemene trend uit concluderen. Om deze conclusie te maken dient er een uitspraak gedaan te worden omtrent de significantie van de verschillen. Zo kunnen we zien dat de inkepingen van de opeenvolgende jaren elkaar overlappen zodus zijn deze verschillen niet significant. Als we dan de inkeping van de box plot van jaar 1 met de inkeping van de box plot van jaar 5 vergelijken, kunnen (door verder onderzoek) concluderen dat deze inkepingen elkaar niet overlappen en bijgevolg significant verschillend zijn van elkaar. Hierdoor kan er geconcludeerd worden dat er algemeen dalende trend waarneembaar is van de medianen.
