A researcher records the number of distracters (such as noises) that preschool-aged children ignore while watching a popular Sunday morning cartoon show. Assuming that the population variance is unknown, what type of t test is appropriate for this study__________

Respuesta :

Answer:

one-sample t test                              

Explanation:

One-sample t-test: The given test compares a given sample of a defined population. The term 'defined population' refers to the parameter of the population which is known. It is often used to test the difference in the given population mean and the hypothesized value. Here, the actual population mean is referred with 'μ' and hypothesized mean with 'M'.

Example: The researcher uses the one-sample t-test when he wants to compare the sample mean to the actual population mean.
