Figure 2

Scatter plot showing the relationship between weekly hours spent playing solo video games on the x-axis and score on a standardised empathy scale on the y-axis. The x-axis ranges from 0 to 45 hours, and the y-axis ranges from 0 to 60 points. The data points show a general downward trend, indicating that as weekly hours spent gaming increase, empathy scores tend to decrease.

Refer to Figure 2. Explain why it would not be appropriate for the researchers to conclude that increased time spent playing solo video games causes a reduction in empathy levels.
