  1. Choose the t test (which mean pick ONE) you think is appropriate out of the three t tests listed below to determine the t-value for the data (you can copy the results from your SPSS output and past them here:
    1. One sample (Mean) test
    2. Two samples (independent t-test) test
    3. Paired/related sample t tests
  2. From the t test you ran above, tell me the confidence intervals (look under 95% CI, lower and upper) for the data and interpret what they mean.

here we will use paired sample t test because the Quality of Marriage   and Quality of the Parent–Child Relationship independent of each other from SPSS we have

Paired Samples Statistics                  
Mean   N   Std. Deviation   Std. Error Mean
Pair 1   marriage   78.5333   30   12.52785   2.28726
Relation   41.2667   30   11.16933   2.03923

Paired Samples Test                                  
       Paired Differences
Mean   Std. Deviation   Std. Error Mean   95%CI of the Difference   t   df   Sig. (2-tailed)      
Lower   Upper          

marriage - Relation   37.26667   12.62164 2.30439   32.55367   41.97966 16.172   29   .000

the 95 % confidence interval is (32.55367 ,41.97966 ) it tells us that we are 95 % sure / confident that the differnece of population mean of the variables give lies in this interval .
