Distinguished -Thoroughly concludes the implications of the analysis on the equal pay question and clearly and accurately identifies the statistical results that support the conclusion.

Proficient - Concludes the implications of the analysis on the equal pay question and identifies the statistical results that support the conclusion. Minor details are missing or inaccurate.

Basic - Partially concludes the implications of the analysis on the equal pay question and minimally identifies the statistical results that support the conclusion. Relevant details are missing or inaccurate.
