A new over-the-counter cold medication includes a warning label stating that it "may cause drowsiness." A researcher would like to evaluate this effect. It is known that under regular circumstances the distribution of reaction times ins normal with μ=200. A sample of n=9 participants is obtained. Each person is given the new cold medication, and, 1 hour later, reaction time is measured for each individual. The average reaction time for this sample is M=206 with SS= 648. The researcher would like to use a hypothesis test with α=.05 to evaluate the effect of the medication.
