Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The finding that obese women earned lower salaries than nonobese women suggests a correlation between obesity and salary, rather than a causation that could be established through an experimental or laboratory study. It is also unlikely to be a qualitative study, as this type of research typically involves more in-depth, subjective analysis of data.
