DA0-002 Data Governance Practice Question
During a presentation, a stakeholder questions the validity of a data insight because the sample size appears small. The analyst knows the sample is statistically significant. What is the best way to address this concern?
⚠ Common exam trap
Test-takers frequently assume a small sample size is always invalid, but the DA0-001 exam tests understanding that statistical significance depends on the margin of error and confidence interval, not just sample size alone.
