Adding more beef silver skin during mixing makes the meat batter warmer, increasing from 7.6°C to 9.0°C as silver skin goes from 0% to 10%.
Scientific Claim
Emulsion processing temperature is linearly associated with beef silver skin levels, rising from 7.57°C to 8.96°C as inclusion increased from 0% to 10% (p = 0.019).
Original Statement
“Emulsion temperature linearly increased with the inclusion of silver skin (p = 0.019).”

Assessment Explanation
The study design is observational; the claim correctly uses 'linearly associated with' to describe statistical relationships without implying causation.
