(Round calculated results to the hundredth (2nd place to the right of the decimal))  In a research project, researchers collected demographic and health data from a sample of elderly residents in the community. To examine any possible gender differences in their sample, they want to see if the females and the males differ significantly on the education level (number of years of formal schooling). The researchers are not predicting any direction in the possible gender differences so the hypotheses should be non-directional.

Q2) Independent-Samples t-Test 
(Round calculated results to the hundredth (2nd place to the right of the decimal))

To examine any possible gender differences in their sample, they want to see if the females and the males differ significantly on the education level (number of years of formal schooling). The researchers are not predicting any direction in the possible gender differences so the hypotheses should be non-directional. They would like to run a two-tailed test with α = .10.
