Would you use a matched or unmatched test for this data? a) Unmatched, because "A" and "B" are similar products b) Unmatched, because each person tries both “A” and "B". c) Matched, because "A" and "B" are similar products d) Matched, because each person tries both " and "B”. e) No way to tell from the information given

Explanation / Answer

d. Matched , because each person tries both A and B.

The matched test (or paired t-test or paired samples t-test or dependent t-test) is used when the data from the two groups can be presented in pairs, for example where the same people are being measured in before-and-after comparison or when the group is given two different tests at different times (eg. Tastes of two different types of Protieins).
