Descriptive statistics on comfort in working with persons who are amputees: For68men: M=3.32,SD= 1.14 For 78 women: M= 3.58, SD = 1.16

Calculations: Your textbook may present a formula for t that requires you to work with the scores of individuals. The formula shown here permits you to calculate t using means, standard deviations, and number of cases:
