　　It is a grave mistake to theorize before one has data.

　　At the small, nonprofit hospital in the town of Saluda, the average length of a patients stay is two days; at the large, for-profit hospital in the nearby city of Megaville, the average patient stay is six days. Also, the cure rate among patients in the Saluda hospital is about twice that of the Megaville hospital. The Saluda hospital has more employees per patient than the hospital in Megaville, and there are few complaints about service at the local hospital.

Therefore, it can be concluded that the respondents in the first study had misrepresented their reading habits.
