Suppose that a board of directors is interested in evaluating the personality of their leadership . Among a sample of n = 16 managers , the sample mean of the openness to experiences dimension of personality was M = 4.50 . Assuming that mu = 4.24 and sigma = 1.05 (Cobb -Clark & Schurer , 2012) , use a two-dailed hypothesis test with alpha = .05 to test the hypothesis that this company's business leaders ' openness to experience is different from the population .
