You found a study that compared the stress ratings of people who meditate vs. those who do not. Based on the data provided, the mean stress rating for non-meditators was 6.50 (standard deviation = 1.05) with a sample size of 6. On the other hand, the mean stress rating for meditators was 4.33 (standard deviation = 1.03) with a sample size of 6.
The t-obtained value was 3.61, and the effect size (d) was 2.08. The upper limit of the 95% confidence interval (UL CI) was 3.51, and the lower limit (LL CI) was 0.828. The significance level (alpha) was set at .05, and a two-tailed test was conducted.
These results suggest that there is a significant difference in stress ratings between people who meditate and those who do not. The stress ratings of meditators were significantly lower compared to non-meditators. This indicates that meditation may be an effective strategy for reducing stress levels in individuals.
