For this analysis, use the variable GOD as your independent variable, comparing individuals who believe in some higher power (3) or know God exists (6). Use the same dependent variables, AGE, EDUC, and NRINCOME06, to estimate t tests. Assume a is .05 for a two-tailed test. Prepare a statement to summarize your findings.

Equal variances not assumed -1.091 12.193 .296 -.866 .794 -2.592 .860
The independent-samples t-test is used to compares the means between two unrelated groups Sleep and No-Sleep on the same continuous, dependent variable
The result of test is desribed in following points,
1. Levene’s Test for Equality of Variances:
The P-value is greater than 0.05 mean the variance of two groups are statistically same. Now since the variances of two group are same, the result of t test for first row will be considered.2. T-test for equality of means,
The P-value is greater than 0.05 at 5% significance level which means there is no statistically significant difference between two group means.
