Zhou and Vohs (2009) published a study showing that handling money reduces the perception of pain. In the experiment, a group of college students was told that they were participating in a manual dexterity study. Half of the students were given a stack of money to count and the other half got a stack of blank pieces of paper. After the counting task, the participants were asked to dip their hands into bowls of very hot water (122° F) and rate how uncomfortable it was. The following data show ratings of pain similar to the results obtained in the study. Counting Money Counting Paper 7 8 11 10 13 6 10 8 11 5 9 15 12 14 5 10 Is there a significant difference in reported pain between the two conditions? Use a two-tailed test with a = .01.
