Question 13 (2 points)

Dr. Moraff wants to compare scores on a math test before and after she teaches students how to use some special mnemonic devices to help them remember tricky math rules. What kind of analysis should she conduct?

Question 13 options:

One-way ANOVA

Paired-samples t test

Chi-squared test

Independent t test

Solution

10) If the difference is not statistically significant then we can not reject the null hypothesis

hence b) The result represents a \"real\" result that is true in the population.

11) As the value of the test static is greater than the critical value, SO

a) He should reject the null hypothesis.
