Degrees of Freedom Probability, P: T-Table

This document provides a table of critical t-values for determining if differences between two means are statistically significant. The table lists t-values for varying degrees of freedom and probabilities from 0.1 to 0.001. It notes that a probability of 0.05 is usually acceptable for biological work and 0.1 can be used for a one-tailed t-test. It also explains that the degrees of freedom for comparing two means is calculated as the sum of the replicates for each treatment minus 2.

T- Table

Note 1: A difference between two means is significant (at the given probability level) if the calculated t value is
greater than the value given in this table. A probability of p = 0.05 (95%) probability of making a correct
statement) is usually acceptable for biological work, but p = 0.1 can be used for a "one tailed" ttest.
Note 2: When comparing two means, the number of degrees of freedom is (n1 + n2)-2, where n1 is the
number of replicates of treatment 1, and n2 is the number of replicates of treatment 2.
Note 3: This table does not show all degrees of freedom. If you want a value between, say 30 and 40, then use
the value for 30 df.
