Answer:

Reject the null hypothesis that there is no difference between males and females on the recognition task.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use MS-Excel to compute the required values.

Consider the data for male subjects first:

  • Mean = [tex]\frac{1}{20}\sum X_{m}}=5.85[/tex]
  • SD = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{1}{20-1}\sum (X_{m}-\bar X_{m})^{2}}=1.69[/tex]
  • SEM = [tex]\frac{SD}{\sqrt{20}}=0.38[/tex]  

Consider the data for female subjects:

  • Mean = [tex]\frac{1}{20}\sum X_{f}}=8.15[/tex]
  • SD = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{1}{20-1}\sum (X_{f}-\bar X_{f})^{2}}=0.93[/tex]
  • SEM = [tex]\frac{SD}{\sqrt{20}}=0.21[/tex]  

Use the Data Analysis tool in Excel to perform the hypothesis test.

The hypothesis can be defined as follows:

H₀: There is no difference between the two responses, i.e.[tex]\mu_{m}-\mu_{f}=0[/tex] .

Hₐ: There is a significant difference between the two responses, i.e.[tex]\mu_{m}-\mu_{f}\neq 0[/tex] .

Consider the Excel output for the hypothesis test.

The test statistic value is:

t = -5.32

The degrees of freedom is:

df = 38

The p value associated with the t value is:

p-value =  4.91025E-06  < 0.05

As the p-value is less than the significance level the null hypothesis will be rejected.

Conclusion:

Reject the null hypothesis that there is no difference between males and females on the recognition task.
