Question

We begin with a population of scores that forms a normal distribution with μ = 50 and σ = 10. A sample of n = 25 is selected from the population and a treatment is administered to the sample. After treatment, the sample mean is found to be M = 51. Does this sample provide evidence of a statistically significant treatment effect?

Do the 4 steps of hypothesis testing (Non-Directional; .05 level of significance)

Q : Based on the computed value, we will accept the null hypothesis

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
