EXPERIMENT 9: Implementing T-Test
Objectives:
One sample t-test has only one sample test whether sample mean is equal to specified value or not
The one sample t test determines whether the sample means is staisticallly different form a known or
hypothized popultioion mean it is a paramtric test
Procedure
Step 4 . select the variable thayt you want to test and drag them to test variable box
Step 5 . Click on option in confidence ineterval proceduire box use / input confidence interval default
The Independent Sample t-test also called the two sample t-test. It is an inferential statistical test that
determines whether there is a statistically significant difference between the means in two unrelated
groups. The Independent Sample t-test is a parametric test.
𝑃rocedure
Step 4 : Select the variable that you want to test and drag them to test variable test.
Step 5 : In grouping variable box drag the variable you divided into groups.
Step 6 : Click “Define group” you will get a window having Group 1 and Group 2. Enter the value that
you have specified in value. For this example (1 for section A, 2 for section B)
Step 7 : Click on continue. If you want to change confidence interval percentage then click on option.
And change it.
Step 8 : Click on continue and then click on OK. Then interpret your calculated result.
NOTE : For making interpretation.
If the value of p (i.e. Sig. (2-tailed) > 0.05 ) , then Null hypothesis is accepted. Otherwise,
rejected.
The paired sample t-test compares two means that are from the same individual object or related units.
The two means typically represents two different times (i.e. before experiment and after experiment) or
two different but related conditions or units.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether there is statistical evidence that the mean difference
paired observation on a particular outcomes is significantly different from zero.

PROCEDURE
Step 1 : Enter the data in SPSS worksheet that you want to test.
Step 2 : Click on “Analyze”. Then click on compare mean.
NOTE : As you have specified before test and after test variable.
Step 4 : In paired variables ; drag 1st variable (i.e. before test) in variable 1 and another variable (i.e. after
test) in variable 2.
NOTE : Pair column represents the numbers of paired sample t tests to run. You may choose to run
multiple paired sample t tests simultaneously by selecting multiple sets of matched variables.
