Inferential statistics
You are interested in finding out which is the most appealing name for a new brand of potato chips. You find a group of potato chip eaters that is representative of all potato chip eaters and ask these people to tell which names for potato chips that they like best. Then you extrapolate (infer) the findings to a huge group of potato chip eaters
