A study was designed to compare the attitudes of two groups of nursing students towards computers. Group 1 had previously taken a statistical methods course that involved significant computer interaction. Group 2 had taken a statistic methods course that did not use computers. The students' attitudes were measured by administering the Computer Anxiety Rating Scale (CARS). A random sample of 1010 nursing students from Group 1 resulted in a mean score of 55.755.7 with a standard deviation of 7.97.9. A random sample of 1515 nursing students from Group 2 resulted in a mean score of 65.665.6 with a standard deviation of 6.16.1. Can you conclude that the mean score for Group 1 is significantly lower than the mean score for Group 2? Let μ1�1 represent the mean score for Group 1 and μ2�2 represent the mean score for Group 2. Use a significance level of α=0.05�=0.05 for the test. Assume that the population variances are equal and that the two populations are normally distributed. Step 3 of 4: Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis H0�0. Round your answer to three decimal places.
