Question

Q1) Find the t values that form the boundaries of the critical region for a two-tailed test with = .05 for each of the following sample size (n) values. a N= 9 b N= 16 c N= 25 d Using info from Q1 a-c above, what can you glean about the relationship between sample size and critical region? And how does this relationship impact the liklihood of finding significant results?

Explanation / Answer

a.
Critical Value
The Value of t with n-1 = 9 d.f is -2.262, 2.262

b.
Critical Value
The Value of t with n-1 = 16 d.f is -2.12, 2.12

c.
Critical Value
The Value of t with n-1 = 25 d.f is -2.06, 2.06

d.
The larger the sample size shorter the critical value
