3) Suppose we are interested in comparing the effectiveness of two different antibiotics, A and B, in treating gonorrhea. Each person receiving antibiotic A is matched with an equivalent person (age within 5 years, same sex), to whom antibiotic B is given. These people are asked to return to the clinic within 1 week to see if the gonorrhea has been eliminated.

The following scores are from an independent-measures study comparing two treatment conditions. (Be sure to include your critical values) a. Use an independent -measures t-test with a = 0.05 to determine whether there is a significant mean difference between the two treatments. b. Use an ANOVA with a = 0.05 to determine whether there is a significant mean difference between the two treatments. You should find that F = t2. Treatment I Treatment II 10 7 n=16 8 4 g=120...
