A researcher in behavioral medicine believes that stress often makes asthma symptoms worse. The research decides to examine the effect of relaxation training on the severity of asthma symptoms. A sample of 5 patients is selected for the study. During the week before treatment, the researcher records the severity of the symptoms by measuring how many doses of medication are needed for asthma attacks. Then the patients receive relaxation training. For the week following training, the research once again records the number of doses required by each patient. The mean difference is calculated Md= -4 with SS= 16.
