*********

A researcher developed and tested a perception test on a group of 26 females and 22 males. Based on initial studies it seems males will score higher on her perception test.

Each person in each group had to estimate the height of a horse at a distance of 15 feet.

She assumed the population ofmales, Pop1, in general, and the population of females, Pop2, in general, were both normally distributed with unequal population standard deviations. Use = 5%.

The sample results of her testing is displayed in the table below.

Sample Size 26 22
Sample Mean 32.3 26.5
Sample St. Dev. 28.7 22.8
