We will test if there is a significant difference between the means of two populations. We can assume population 1 the bilingual students with population mean denoted as ₁ and population 2 the monolingual students with population mean denoted as ₂. The population mean that we are talking about here is the adolescents' social intelligence.

Null Hypothesis, H₀: ₁=₂

There is no significant difference between the adolescents' social intelligence between the bilingual and monolingual students.

Alternative Hypothesis, H₁: ₁₂

There is a significant difference between the adolescents' social intelligence between the bilingual and monolingual students.

Based on the above information, I am trying to come up with hypothetical findings... I need to put some "hypothetical data" into SPSS, but I am wondering how to go about it.

Would i just make up the following table and input into SPSS?

The scores are based off of the Tromso Social Intelligence Scale where each subscale is based on 7 items on a 7-point scale; thus, they have possible scores between 7 and 49.

So could I make table like this in SPSS for 30 participants, one for monolinguals and one for bilinguals?
