If the result of a one-sample t test is reported as p > .05, it means that the obtained p-value is greater than the chosen alpha level (usually .05), which is not statistically significant. Therefore, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and accept the null hypothesis as the most likely explanation. Hence, the correct choice is B.
