Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The difference between day temperature (DT) and night temperature (NT), abbreviated as DIF, is defined as DT– NT. Positive DIF occurs when DT is higher than NT, zero DIF occurs when DT is the same as NT, and negative DIF occurs when DT is lower than NT.

Detailed explanation-2: -Rick Yates, GGSPro Technical Services Manager, Griffin Greenhouse and Nursery Supplies, Inc. Defining terms-“DIF” stands for the difference between the night temperature and the day temperature. This can be expressed as either a positive or a negative number. For example, night 55°, day 65°: “DIF” = +10.

Detailed explanation-3: -DIF statistical techniques are based on the principle that if different groups of test-takers (e.g., males and females) have roughly the same level of something (e.g., knowledge), then they should perform similarly on individual test items regardless of group membership.
