Question: You have landed a job with a sports psychologist, & presently find yourself involved in testing the effectiveness of fumble prevention training for running backs. You select twenty running backs & pair them according to how many fumbles they lost last season. Then you take each pair & randomly assign one to each of two fumble prevention training programs. Thus, your subjects are matched on fumble proclivity. Below find three columns-pair number, fumbles lost in the ten games after the training for method one & fumbles lost in the ten games after the training for method two.

Pair	Method 1	Method 2
1	5	7
2	2	4
3	3	6
4	1	3
5	4	5
6	0	3
7	2	3
8	1	2
9	2	4
10	5	6
Means	2.5	4.3
Sums

Suppose the players who make up the pairs are evenly matched.

[A] What is the dependent variable?
[B] Perform the appropriate analysis/analyses & state your conclusions.
[C] What is the independent variable?
[D] What is/are the appropriate tests to use for this study? Explain your answer.
