Question

for HRSRELAX for men and women. The GS$ 2014 asked respondents "after an average work day, about how many hours do you have to relax or pursue the activities you enjoy"? In this exercise, we selected married GSS respondents and calculated the t test for HRSRELAX. Is there a significant difference between married men and married women in the number of hours they have to relax during the day? Set alpha at.05. If alpha was changed to 01, would your Step 5 decision change? Explain. Group Statistics RESPONDENTS SEX MALE FEMALE 3.56 229 HAVE TO RELAX Sad.

Explanation / Answer

To answer this, refer to the 2nd table:

When you take alpha cutoff value to be .05, you conclude that there is statistically significant difference
as sig(2-tailed) vallueis .027, i.e. less than the alpha = .05. So we conclude that means of the 2 genders
are not equal

When you take alpha cutoff value to be .01, you conclude that there isn't statistically significant difference
as sig(2-tailed) vallueis .027, i.e. more than the alpha = .01. So we conclude that means of the 2 genders
are equal
