Independent Sample T-test Q&A
What is the purpose of Independent sample t-test? - (correct answer)It is used when
you have two samples that are not related to one another and you want to see of there
is a difference between the means of the two populations form which the samples are
drawn.
What is an example of an independent Samples T- test? - (correct answer)Comparing
independent treatment and control groups on mean level of depression.
OR
Comparing women and men (who are not connected to each other - complete
strangers) on mean levels if self esteem.
What can be the different null hypothesis in an Independent samples t-test in statistical
notation? - (correct answer)Ho: M1 = M2 OR Ho: M1 - M2 = 0
What can be the alternative hypothesis for an Independent samples t- test in statistical
notation? - (correct answer)Ha: M1 does not equal M2
OR
Ha: M1 - M2 does not = 0
What can the alternative hypothesis be for a one tailed test in statistical notion? -
(correct answer)Ha: M1 - M2 > 0
OR
Ha: M1 - M2 < 0
What are the null hypothesis in an Independent samples t-test in words? - (correct
answer)(Ho: M1 = M2 or M1- M2 = 0 ) IN THE POPULATION there is no difference
between mean 1 and mean 2.
