Individual and situational explanations

Consider individual and situational explanations in relation to each core study, where appropriate.

Use individual and situational explanations to connect the rule to the data and decision in the question.

This matters because individual and situational explanations determines what can be inferred or chosen; begin with the stated conditions and keep the conclusion tied to the evidence.

Example: apply individual and situational explanations to one small, clearly defined case, show the key step or comparison, and explain the result in words.

Boundary: Individual and situational explanations is not a universal recommendation. Check the syllabus scope, assumptions, units and the limits of the evidence before generalising.
