A researcher would like to know how much physical endurance is affected by a common herbal supplement. The researcher measures endurance for a sample of n = 9 participants. Each is then given a 30-day supply of the herbs and, one month later, endurance is measured again. For this sample, endurance increased by an average of MD= 6 points with SSD = 216. a. make a point estimate of the mean difference in endurance after taking the herbs. b. make a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean difference.
