Hypothesis Testing
t-Test Fundamentals
Effect Size & Power
200

This states that there is no difference, effect, or relationship between variables.

What is the Null Hypothesis (H0)?

200

An independent groups (independent samples) t-test compares _____ group means.

What is 2?

200

This is the measure of effect size for both an independent groups (independent samples) and repeated measures (paired samples) t-test.

What is Cohen's d?

400

This is the probability value that represents the likelihood of obtaining the observed result, or a more extreme one, if the Null Hypothesis is true.

What is the p-value?

400

This type of t-test is used when participants are tested under all conditions/levels of the I.V.

What is a repeated measures (paired samples) t-test?

400

Effect size represents this.

What is percentage of the D.V. explained by the I.V.?

600

This is a pre-determined threshold used to determine what results are “too unlikely” to occur by chance if the null hypothesis (H0) true.

What is the alpha-level ()?

600

This assumption, required for an independent groups (independent samples) t-test, indicates that the variance for the D.V. should be approximately equal for both groups.

What is homogeneity of variance?

600

Effect size is a measure of this type __________ variance.

What is explained variance?

800

This type of error occurs when the researcher rejects a true null hypothesis (H0).

What is a Type I Error?

800

This test is used to determine homogeneity of variance for an independent groups (independent samples) t-test.

What is Levene's test?

800

Statistical power is primarily influenced by __________.

What is sample size?

1000

When the p-value is less than the alpha-level (), the researcher __________ the null hypothesis (H0).

What is reject?

1000

When Levene's test has a p-value > .05, we have _____ the assumption of homogeneity of variance.

What is met?

1000

This type of power analysis is done before a study to determine the minimum sample size required to determine an effect of a certain size.

What is an a priori power analysis.
