Before | After |
2.4 | 3.1 |
2.5 | 2.9 |
3.0 | 3.6 |
2.9 | 3.1 |
2.7 | 3.5 |
(a) Test whether or not her tutoring is effective at a 0.05
level of significance. State the value of the test statistic.
(Round your answer to three decimal places.)
t =
(b) Compute effect size using estimated Cohen's d.
(Round your answer to two decimal places.)
d =
from above t =-5.014
since p value <0.05 , tutoring is effective at a 0.05 level of significance
reject the null
b) Cohen's d. =|dbar|sd = -0.54/0.241=2.24
