Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Confirmatory data analysis is the process of testing pre-existing theories or hypotheses using collected data, similar to trial by judge and jury relying on existing laws and evidence. Exploratory data analysis, on the other hand, is the process of discovering patterns and relationships in the data, which is not directly related to trial by judge and jury. The other choices (A), (B), and (C) are more closely related to the development and testing of theories, not the process of confirming or testing them.
