The T Test For Two Coursework Example

Student’s Name Professor’s Name Course Date The T-Test for Two Independent Samples Write a research question for a t-test for two independent samples. Include the null and alternative hypotheses (2 points). Research question: “Is there a relationship between gender and the number of dropouts”. Null hypothesis: “There is no statistically significant difference in the number of dropouts between female and male students”. Alternative hypothesis: “There is a statistically significant difference in the number of dropouts between female and male students”. Using the hypothesis testing procedure we learned in class, select any appropriate independent and any appropriate dependent variable from the Howell data set. Perform an independent t-test on means and make a correct conclusion (2 points). Since the t Stat (9.316) is greater than the t Critical two-tail (1.973), we conclude there is a statistically significant difference for the number of dropouts between female and male students. Report the correct decision regarding the null hypothesis (2 points) Since the p value is less than .05 then we reject the null hypothesis (Kim 543). Based on your analysis, report the results in 1-2 paragraphs using correct APA format (1 point) There was a significant difference in the number of dropouts (M = 0.099, SD = 0.3) between female and male students (M = 0.503, SD = 0.501); t (190) = 9.316, p < 0.05.
