Let's correct the calculation for the standardized test statistic (t) in step iv. ### iv) Standardized Test StatisticThe standardized test statistic (t) is calculated as: \[ t = \frac{\bar{D} - \mu_D}{s_D / \sqrt{n}} \] Under the null hypothesis, \( \mu_D = 0 \): \[ t = \frac{-2.17 - 0}{1.93 / \sqrt{6}} \] First, calculate the standard error: \[ \text{Standard Error} = \frac{s_D}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{1.93}{\sqrt{6}} = \frac{1.93}{2.45} = 0.787 \] Now, calculate the t-value: \[ t = \frac{-2.17}{0.787} = -2.76 \] The correct value for the standardized test statistic is \( t = -2.76 \). ### v) P-value for the Standardized Test StatisticFor a two-tailed test with \( t = -2.76 \) and \( df = n-1 = 5 \): Using a t-distribution table or calculator, the p-value for \( t = -2.76 \) with 5 degrees of freedom is approximately 0.020. ### vi) ConclusionBased on the p-value (0.020), which is less than the typical significance level of 0.05, we reject the null hypothesis. This suggests that there is a statistically significant difference in the reading age between the experimental group and the control group. So, the correct standardized test statistic should be \( t = -2.76 \). Let's fill in the correct value for the standardized test statistic in the image: \[ t = -2.76 \] This should be entered in the box for the standardized test statistic.

Solution

You are correct in your calculations. The standardized test statistic (t) is indeed calculated as:

t=DˉμDsD/n t = \frac{\bar{D} - \mu_D}{s_D / \sqrt{n}}

Under the null hypothesis, μD=0 \mu_D = 0 , so the calculation becomes:

t=2.1701.93/6 t = \frac{-2.17 - 0}{1.93 / \sqrt{6}}

The standard error is calculated as:

Standard Error=sDn=1.936=1.932.45=0.787 \text{Standard Error} = \frac{s_D}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{1.93}{\sqrt{6}} = \frac{1.93}{2.45} = 0.787

Then, the t-value is calculated as:

t=2.170.787=2.76 t = \frac{-2.17}{0.787} = -2.76

So, the correct value for the standardized test statistic is t=2.76 t = -2.76 .

For a two-tailed test with t=2.76 t = -2.76 and df=n1=5 df = n-1 = 5 , the p-value for t=2.76 t = -2.76 with 5 degrees of freedom is approximately 0.020.

Based on the p-value (0.020), which is less than the typical significance level of 0.05, we reject the null hypothesis. This suggests that there is a statistically significant difference in the reading age between the experimental group and the control group.

So, the correct standardized test statistic should be t=2.76 t = -2.76 . This value should be entered in the box for the standardized test statistic.
