Null Hypothesis

1. A study tested whether a week's sales training course improved rapport with customers for 10 salesladies. No significant difference was found between rapport scores before and after training. 2. A study examined calcium levels in soil before and after a prescribed burn. Calcium levels were significantly higher after the burn compared to before. 3. A study compared diastolic blood pressure readings between sedentary patients and those who exercised regularly. Diastolic readings were significantly lower for the exercise group compared to the sedentary group.

a. Hypothesis
Ho: A week’s training course will not help 10 salesladies’ rapport with the customers
Ha: A week’s training course will help 10 salesladies’ rapport with the customers

Ttab = 2.1009 Tcom = 0.9774

c. Result in APA Format


The difference in the salesladies’ rapport with the customers before training (Mean = 6.61; SD
= 0.56) and after training (Mean = 6.91; SD = 0.78) was not significant (t (18) = 0.9774; p =
0.3413).
