Section 7.4 Conclusion

We have covered two types of t-tests: the independent-samples t-test for comparing the means of two unrelated groups and the paired-samples t-test for comparing the means of two related groups. In the next chapter, we will delve into analysis of variance (ANOVA), which becomes handy when comparing mean scores across more than two groups. Additionally, you will learn about post hoc tests in ANOVA, which help identify statistically significant differences among multiple means.
