Each child is asked to keep ajournal recording how much time each day is spent watching TV. The average daily time for the sample is M=4.9 hours. It is known that the average time for the general population of 8 to 12 year old children is mu=4.1 hours with a standard deviation = 1.8. are the data sufficient to conclude that children with ADHD watch significantly more TV than children without the disorder?
