A forensic psychologist conducts a study examining whether being hypnotized during recall affects the number of facts a witness recounts. He separates his participants into two groups and have each view a short film of a mock robbery. The hypnotized sample of 14 witnesses recalled, on average, 17 facts with a sample variance of 47.3. The sample of 14 participants who were not hypnotized recalled, on average, 22 facts with a sample variance of 45.6. Assume the correct estimated standard error value. A) What is the appropriate test for this data?
B) Conduct the appropriate hypothesis test by hand. Follow the five steps of hypothesis testing and provide a drawing.
C) Give an interpretation of this data (one sentence conclusion of the hypothesis test that should be free of statistical jargon) and report the statistics in APA format.
