Which combination of factors is most likely to produce a statistically significant value for an independent-measures t statistic? a. small sample sizes and large sample variances b. small sample sizes and small sample variances c. large sample sizes and small sample variances d. large sample sizes and large sample variances
Added by Anthony M.
Step 1
Step 1: The formula for computing the t statistic for independent samples is t = (M1 - M2) / √((s1^2/n1) + (s2^2/n2)), where M1 and M2 are the sample means, s1 and s2 are the sample standard deviations, and n1 and n2 are the sample sizes. Show more…
