    The answer is no, at least not certainly.

    Explanation:

    In the example, Nora is counfounding corerlation with causation.

    Correlation means two or more variables are related. For example, a study might find that children who eat breakfast perform better at school than those who do not. However, this does NOT mean there is a cause-effect relationship, as there could be other factors that affect the outcome.
