Professional dancer, choreographer, educator and AmSAT (American Society for Alexander Technique) certified teacher, KC Chun-Manning explains âThe Alexander Technique (AT) has affected EVERY aspect of my life and how I live in my body, allowing for increased skill, clarity, integration and better choice-making.
The two-sample t-test is a hypothesis test for answering questions about the mean where the data are collected from two random samples of independent observations, each from an underlying normal distribution: The steps of conducting a two-sample t-test are quite similar to those of the one-sample test. And for the sake of consistency, we will focus on another example dealing with birthweight and prenatal care.
Two-sample t-tests for a difference in mean involve independent samples or unpaired samples. Paired t-tests are a form of blocking, and have greater power than unpaired tests when the paired units are similar with respect to noise factors that are independent of membership in the two groups being compared.
