Question

A school psychologist is interested in determining if children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) learn better if English literature is read to them rather than having them read the material alone by themselves. A random sample of 10 sixth graders with ADHD is selected and divided into two groups of n=9. One of the groups has a story read to them (Listening Group) and the other reads the story alone by themselves (Reading Group). A test on the story is given after each group has finished reading or hearing the story. The following scores were obtained with 20 being a perfect score. What is the alpha level?
