8	4	0	0	0
9	2	1	1	1
10	7	1	1	8

Answer 1

Independent T-test has been used for testing the hypothesis. Test has been performed assuming that population variances are equal.

First of all we need to find mean and standard deviation of number times respondent bullied others separately for respondents who were a bully victim and who were not bully victim.

The calculated sample means are shown below:

Also, the calculated sample standard deviations are:

Interpretation

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that individuals who were bullied committed more bullying than those who were not bullied, at the 0.05 significance level.
