This is a paired t-test with df=7
\n" ); document.write( "Ho: d=0
\n" ); document.write( "Ha: d ne 0
\n" ); document.write( "alpha is 3.499 p{reject Ho|Ho true}
\n" ); document.write( "calculations
\n" ); document.write( "differences are 0,1,1,3,1,-1,1,2
\n" ); document.write( "mean is 1
\n" ); document.write( "sd is 1.20
\n" ); document.write( "t=(x bar-0)/s/sqrt(n)
\n" ); document.write( "=1*sqrt(8)/1.20
\n" ); document.write( "=2.35
\n" ); document.write( "fail to reject Ho at the 1% level. p-value is 0.050.
\n" ); document.write( "Insufficient evidence
\n" ); document.write( "Using the same driver eliminates differences in metabolism and reaction time, and is a far better technique here.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
