A data set from a study that examined the effect of a specific diet on blood pressure is provided on the course web page. Participants (n = 72) were randomly assigned either to a group that was put on the diet (Diet = Present) or to a group that was not put on the diet (Diet = Absent), and researchers wanted to know whether the diet had a significant impact on blood pressure. The other variables in the data set are drug (X, Y, or Z) and a biofeedback condition (present or absent), but we wish to focus on the diet effect here. Test whether there is a statistically significant difference in mean blood pressure between the diet groups. Report the appropriate test statistic, df, and p-value.

A data set from a study that examined the effect of a specific diet on blood pressure is provided on the course web page. Participants (n = 72) were randomly assigned either to a group that was put on the diet (Diet = Present) or to a group that was not put on the diet (Diet = Absent), and researchers wanted to know whether the diet had a significant impact on blood pressure. The other variables in the data set are drug (X, Y, or Z) and a biofeedback condition (present or absent), but we wish to focus on the diet effect here.

Test whether there is a statistically significant difference in mean blood pressure between the diet groups. Report the appropriate test statistic, df, and p-value.
