Question: A random sample of 122 delinquent boys was selected and randomly divided into two groups . The researcher was interested in discovering whether a six-week, nondirective, individual therapy program would affect levels of measured anxiety. The boys in group A all received the therapy, whereas those in group B did not. Both groups were then given an anxiety-level test (high scores indicating more anxiety).
The data were as follows:
| Group A | Group B |
| N = 61 | N = 61 |
| M = 98.06 | M = 102.35 |
| Sem = 1.98 | Sem = 2.02 |
- Do you accept or reject the null hypothesis?
- Is there a significant difference in the anxiety test scores between the two groups?
- What type of research is this, post facto or experimental?
- Identify both the IV and DV.
