T Test For Independent Samples
T Test For Independent Samples
PEDRITO B. MALICDEM
The Parametric Tests are tests
applied to data that are
normally distributed, the
levels of measurement of
which are expressed in interval
and ratio.
Parametric Tests
The Parametric tests are:
t-test for Independent Samples
F-test (ANOVA)
Parametric Tests
Distribution is normal, that is when
skewness is equal to zero and
kurtosis is .265
The level of measurement to be
analysed are expressed in interval
and ratio data.
When do we use
parametric tests?
They are more powerful
compared to the nonparametric
tests.
Why do we use
parametric tests?
First, determine whether
the data are distributed
normally or abnormally
by solving for the value of
skewness and kurtosis
using the formula:
How do we use
parametric tests?
Second, if the result of the skewness is
How do we use
parametric tests?
Interval data provide number that reflect
differences among items. With interval
scales the measurement units are equal.
Examples:
Scores of intelligence tests, and time as reckoned from
the calendar. They have no true zero value.
Sample Problem 1
How do you solve t-test
for independent samples
using Microsoft Office
Excel?
Step 1. Enter the Data for Male and Female.
Step 2. Click Data on the Menu Bar and Select
Data Analysis
Step 3. The Data Analysis dialogue box
appears. Select t-test: Two-Sample Assuming
Equal Variances and click ok.
Step 4. Enter the values of the Variable Range 1 and
Variable Range 2. Enter the level of significance of
0.05 in the ALPHA
Step 5. On the output option select output range.
Click anywhere in the blank worksheet and click
OK.
Step 5. On the output option select output range.
Click anywhere in the blank worksheet and click
OK.
