For the general population of adolescents, scores on this questionnaire forma a normal distribution with a mean of u = 40 and a standard deviation of o = 12. The sample of group participation adolescents has an average of M = 43.84 Use a two-tailed test with x = .01.

a. Does this sample provide enough evidence to conclude that self-esteem scores for these adolescents are significantly different from those of the general population? Use a two-tailed test with x =.01.
