Please show steps. I'm studying for finals. thank you.

Explanation / Answer

H0 : Mean(population1 ) = Mean(population2)

HA : Mean(population1 ) is not equal to Mean(population2)

Difference Scores Calculations

Treatment 1

N1: 8
df1 = N - 1 = 8 - 1 = 7
M1: 37.38
SS1: 691.88
s21 = SS1/(N - 1) = 691.88/(8-1) = 98.84


Treatment 2

N2: 8
df2 = N - 1 = 8 - 1 = 7
M2: 41.25
SS2: 651.5
s22 = SS2/(N - 1) = 651.5/(8-1) = 93.07


T-value Calculation

s2p = ((df1/(df1 + df2)) * s21) + ((df2/(df2+ df2)) * s22) = ((7/14) * 98.84) + ((7/14) * 93.07) = 95.96

s2M1 = s2p/N1 = 95.96/8 = 11.99
s2M2 = s2p/N2 = 95.96/8 = 11.99

t = (M1 - M2)/(s2M1 + s2M2) = -3.88/23.99 = -0.79

The t-value is -0.79117. The p-value is .442046. The result is not significant at p < .01.
