In this activity, students will take data from a fictitious two-group design to practice conducting a t<\/em>-test for Independent Means. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, provide students with the research scenario and the accompanying questions to have them determine the research design, statistical analysis to use, and independent and dependent variables. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, have students set up a data file using the included data from the study, and run the appropriate analysis. Students should summarize their results. An answer key and output are included. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although, SPSS output is provided, this activity could be run using any statistics program or students could perform calculations by hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
