A researcher is conducting an experimental research where reaction time is measured. 50 participants were selected randomly from the population. Each participant was asked to press the "space bar" on a computer that has been in the research lab for 20 years. If the results of such a study show an overall slow reaction time across the participants then the conclusion can be made as such?
