Solution

The result of a statistical test that allows us to conclude that preschool children are aggressive when sharing toys would be considered as an inferential statistic. Inferential statistics are used to make inferences or predictions about a population based on data collected from a sample of that population. In this case, the statistical test is used to infer the behavior of all preschool children based on the data collected from the 25 children in the study.
