Body image dissatisfaction (BID) strongly predicts undesirable outcomes, including disordered eating, depression, and low self-esteem. People with multiple sclerosis (MS) may have higher BID due to changes in mobility and functioning and high rates of depression.

Stevens et al. (2019) conducted a study to identify factors predicting BID in people with MS. On their short-form version of the Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ), scores66 indicated concern with shape. The scores among the 142 MS patients who completed all 16 BSQ questions had a distribution that appeared to be bell-shaped with a mean of 39.13 and a standard deviation of 18.10, indicating mild concern with shape.

Using a 0.10 significance level, you need to test the claim that this sample comes from a population with a mean score that is significantly greater than 38.36 (i.e., the mean value from adults without MS in the Evans and Dolan study).

What critical value and test statistic should you use to test the given hypothesis?
