Statistical Test DEPENDENT SAMPLE T-TEST BASAS, Quisha Mae REAZO, Kay Darlyn BOMBITA, Lleycon Christopher B. Dependent Sample t-Test Definition When to use Step by Step Procedure Dependent Sample t-Test The dependent sample t-test , sometimes called the paired sample t-test , is a statistical procedure used to determine whether the mean difference between two sets of observations is zero. In a paired sample t-test, each subject or entity is measured twice, resulting in pairs of observations. Dependent Sample t-Test When do we used the Dependent Sample t-Test? The dependent sample t-test is used when the observations or cases in one sample are linked with the cases in the other sample. This is typically the case when repeated measures are taken, or when analyzing similar units or comparable specimen. Dependent Sample t-Test Example Problem : 6 Grade 12 student are selected to attend a lecture about Statistical Mathematics and given a 30 item test before and right after the said lecture. Hypotheses: Ho : There is no significant difference in the pre-test and post-test of Statistical Mathematics scores Ha : There is significant difference in the pre-test and post-test of Statistical Mathematics scores Dependent Sample t-Test Data Pre-test Scores Post-test Scores 12 23 10 25 7 21 15 27 5 18 10 22 Dependent Sample t-Test Step by step procedure in computing Dependent Sample t-Test Step 1 : Compute for the Mean of the two conditions Pre-test Scores Post-test Scores 12 23 10 25 7 21 15 27 5 18 10 22 M₁ = 9.83 M₂ = 22.6 Step 2 : Compute for the Difference Scores Total Pre-test Scores Post-test Scores Difference Difference ² 12 23 -11 121 10 25 -15 225 7 21 -14 196 15 27 -12 144 5 18 -13 169 10 22 -12 144 59 136 ∑D = -77 ∑D²= 999 M₁ = 9.83 M₂ = 22.6 Step 3 : Compute for the Mean _ of the Difference Score (D) and the Sum of Squares of Sample Different Scores (SSD) _ ΣD -77 D= = 6 = -12.83 N (ΣD)² SSD= ΣD²N (-77)² SSD= 999 - 6 SSD= 10.83 Step 4 : Compute for the t-statistics _ D - μD t= SSD √ N ( N-1) t= -12.83 - 0 √ 10.83 6 - (6-1) t = -3.9 D_ = difference score D = mean of the sample difference of the scores μD = mean of the population of the difference scores N = number of the difference scores SSD = ∑ (D - D)² = sum of the squares of sample difference scores Step 5 : Determine the Critical Value df = N - 1 df = 6 - 1 df = 5 α = .05 Step 6 : Compare the t-statistics (computed value) to the critical value from the table t = -3.9 t - table = 2.571 If the value of t is greater than the value of table t, reject the Ho. Conclusion : Example Problem : 6 Grade 12 student are selected to attend a lecture about Statistical Mathematics and given a 30 item test before and right after the said lecture. Hypotheses: Ho : There is no significant difference in the pre-test and post-test of Statistical Mathematics scores Ha : There is significant difference in the pre-test and post-test of Statistical Mathematics scores THANK YOU! Problem: 7 student of BSBA Financial Management students are chosen to join the spiritual retreat, then answered religiosity measure before and after the religiosity retreat. Pre-test 4 5 7 5 6 6 7 Pre-test 8 8 9 7 9 10 9 Hypotheses: Ho : There is no significant difference in the pretest and post test of religiosity scores. Ha : There is a significant difference in the pretest and post test of religiosity scores.
