Independent Variable: Exercise Break

Dependent Variable: Satisfaction Score

 

Expert Solution
Step 1 of 3

Given that,

Sample size = 10 workers

µd = Population mean score difference before and after 

In order to test whether the mean difference between the employee satisfaction score before and after exercise program, we need to perform the parametric test called 'Paired/Matched sample t-test'. The null and alternative hypotheses are stated as follows:

Hypotheses:

Null Hypothesis H0: µd =0

That is, there is no significant mean difference in the employee satisfaction scores before and after exercise program.

 

Alternative Hypothesis H1: µd ≠ 0 (Two tailed Test)

That is, there is significant mean difference in the employee satisfaction scores before and after exercise program.

Level of significance α = 0.05 (consider)
