Conduct an Independent Samples T Test (a test of mean differences) using EDUC as the dependent variable (test variable) and SEX as the grouping variable. Define groups so that Group 1 = 1 and Group 2 = 2 (1 = males 2 = females). Set the alpha level at .05.
a. State the null and research hypotheses:
H0:
H1:
b. Is the F statistic for Levene's test significant?
c. What is the alpha level for the t-test?
d. Obtained t-value:
e. Significance level for the t-test:
f. Decision rule:
If the significance level of the obtained t statistic is greater than ____ (alpha level), we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
If the significance level of the obtained t statistic is equal to or less than ____ (alpha level), we reject the null hypothesis.
g. Decision: Since the significance level of the obtained t statistic is _____ and it is __________ (greater or less) than ____ (alpha level), we ________ (reject or fail to reject) the null hypothesis.
h. Interpretation/conclusion:
