A researcher would like to determine whether an over-the-counter cold medication has an effect on mental alertness.  A sample of n = 16 participants is obtained, and each person is given a standard dose of the medication one hour before being tested in a driving simulation task.  For the general population, reaction time scores on the simulation task are normally distributed with μ = 210 and σ = 20.  The individuals in the sample had an average score of M = 222.

a. Can the research conclude that the medication has a significant effect on mental alertness as measured by the driving simulation task?  Use a two-tailed test with α = .05.
