Question

You want to investigate a claim that women are more likely than men to dream in color. You take a random sample of men and a random sample of women and ask whether they dream in color, and compare the proportions of each sex that dream in color.

if the difference in the proportions(who dream in color) between the two samples turns out not to be statistically significant (p-value was not small), which of the following would be the best conclusion to draw?

A. You have found strong evidence that there is no difference between the proportions of men and women in your community that dream in color.

B. You have not found strong evidence that there is a difference between the proportions of men and women in your community that dream in color

C. You have found strong evidence against the claim that there is a difference between the proportions of men and women that dream in color

D. Because the result is not significant, we can’t conclude anything from this study

Explanation / Answer

A. You have found strong evidence that there is no difference between the proportions of men and women in your community that dream in color.

Since the p-value is not small that means it is near to 0 which means there is no difference
