PrepTest 34, Section 2, Question 9
A university study reported that between 1975 and 1983 the length of the average workweek in a certain country increased significantly. A governmental study, on the other hand, shows a significant decline in the length of the average workweek for the same period. Examination of the studies shows, however, that they used different methods of investigation; thus there is no need to look further for an explanation of the difference in the studies' results.

The argument's reasoning is flawed because the argument fails to
distinguish between a study produced for the purposes of the operation of government and a study produced as part of university research
distinguish between a method of investigation and the purpose of an investigation
recognize that only one of the studies has been properly conducted
recognize that two different methods of investigation can yield identical results
recognize that varying economic conditions result in the average workweek changing in length
