Solution: To evaluate the effect of a treatment, a sample of n=9 is obtained from a population with a mean of μ=40, and the treatment is administered
Question: To evaluate the effect of a treatment, a sample of \(n=9\) is obtained from a population with a mean of \(\mu=40\), and the treatment is administered to the individuals in the sample. After treatment, the sample mean is found to be \(M=33\).
- If the sample has a standard deviation of \(s=9\), are the data sufficient to conclude that the treatment has a significant effect using a two-tailed test with \(\alpha=.05\) ?
- If the sample standard deviation is \(s=15\), are the data sufficient to conclude that the treatment has a significant effect using a two-tailed test with \(\alpha=.05 ?\)
- Comparing your answer for parts a and b, how does the variability of the scores in the sample influence the outcome of a hypothesis test?
