7.3.2 Use of non-human animals in experiments in psychology practical and ethical issues and the Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act 1986.
Use - non-human animal research to connect the rule to the data and decision in the question.
This matters because - non-human animal research determines what can be inferred or chosen; begin with the stated conditions and keep the conclusion tied to the evidence.
Example: apply - non-human animal research to one small, clearly defined case, show the key step or comparison, and explain the result in words.
Boundary: - Non-human animal research is not a universal recommendation. Check the syllabus scope, assumptions, units and the limits of the evidence before generalising.
