Given a t_crit of -2.01 for an independent samples t test, which of the following obtained t-value will lead to the rejection of H₀? A) +2.88 B) -2.33 C) +2.41 D) -1.98

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The obtained t-value must be less than the critical t-value in order to reject the null hypothesis. Therefore, any negative obtained t-value that is greater than -2.01 will lead to rejection of H₀. The only choice for a negative obtained t-value that is larger in absolute value than -2.01 is -2.33, therefore the answer is B.
