Elementary school A has implemented an after-school sports program and the principal would like to know if the participants of t
he sports program are becoming more active in general, compared to students who are not participating in the program. So the principal collected data on overall physical activities throughout the week from a group of the sports program participants and a group of school A students not in the program. The most appropriate statistical test for data analysis would be:_______. A. Paired-samples t test
B. Independent-samples t test
C. Pearson's correlation
D. One-sample t test
The test here is to find out if the participants of the sports program are becoming more active in general when compared to students who are not participating in the program.
Now, this will involve taking sample from the two independent groups to determine if there is statistical evidence that one is more active than the other.
Thus, the best test to use in this case will be the Independent-samples t test
