Rata − rata skor tes memori pada kelompok yang tidur tiga jam
adalah 58; dalam kelompok yang tidur lima jam, itu adalah 62 .
Step 1
- Given:
-x–1 = 62, x
–2 = 58
- n1 = 40, n2 = 35
- σ=6
- α = 0.01
- Test Statistic:
(62−58)
t=
√ 62 + 62
40 35
df = n1 + n2 − 2 = 40 + 35 − 2 = 73
- Critical Value:
- Using a t-table or statistical software, !nd the tcritical
for a two-tailed test with df = 73 at α2 = 0.005.
- Calculation:

t≈
√ 0.36

+ 035
4
t≈ √0.009+0.01029
4
t≈ √0.01929
4
t≈ 0.1388
t ≈ 28.85
- Conclusion:
|t| = 28.85 > tcritical
- Reject the null hypothesis.
- There is a signi!cant difference in memory
performance between the two groups.
Explanation:
Step 2
- Given:
- Same as in part (a).
- α = 0.05
- Test Statistic:
- Same as in part (a).
- Degrees of Freedom (df):
- Same as in part (a).
- Critical Value:
- Using a t-table or statistical software, !nd the tcritical
for a one-tailed test with df = 73 at α = 0.05.
- Calculation:
- Same as in part (a).
- Conclusion:
- p (calculated using the test statistic) is compared
with α.
- If p < α , reject the null hypothesis.
