I ran an independent t test and the results are: for Levene's test of equality of variances Religious Commitment (my independent variable) F = 6.067, Sig = .015, t = 1.140, df = 169. Under t-test for equality of means equal variances assumed, for religious commitment, Sig (2-tailed) = .256, Mean difference = .18183, std error difference = .15950, for 95% confidence level of the difference, the lower was -.13304 and the upper was .49671.

For equal variances not assumed, t = 1.280, df = 115.852. Under t-test for equality of means equal variances assumed, for religious commitment, Sig (2-tailed) = .203, Mean difference = .18183, std error difference = .14207, for 95% confidence level of the difference, the lower was -.09956 and the upper was .46323.

For the independent samples effect sizes for Religious commitment, Cohen's d, Standardizer is .94308, Point estimate is .193, lower confidence interval level is -.140 and upper is .525.

For Hedge's correction, Standardizer is .94730, Point estimate is .192, lower confidence interval level is -.139 and upper is .522. For Glass's delta, Standardizer is 1.00547, Point estimate is .181, lower confidence interval level is -.152 and upper is .513.

How do I explain these results for my independent variable, which is religious commitment?
