Question

You are conducting an experiment to determine whether males and females have different emotional reactions to chocolate consumption. Your male sample size is 124, and your female sample size is 232. What is your degrees of freedom when determining your p-value?

Answer 1

354

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Sample size of the male = 124

Sample size of the female = 232

Now,

Degree of freedom is calculated as = (Sample,1 - 1 ) + (Sample,2 - 1 )

Therefore,

Degree of freedom

= (Sample size of the male - 1 ) + (Sample size of the male - 1)

or

Degree of freedom = ( 124 - 1 ) + ( 232 - 1 )

or

Degree of freedom = 123 + 231

or

Degree of freedom = 354
