Inferential StatsTemperature Device The spree device produces results significantly worse than the gold standard device. The p-value is much smaller than 0.05, meaning that the results are significant. In other words, the data from the spree is very different from the gold standard. When comparing the two device measurements through the Pearson's value, which is 0.193, we see that it is much smaller than 0.4 (this is the acceptable value showing correlation). From the data, we can infer that the spree device is inferior to the gold standard and should not be used on people due to accuracy problems.
