Document Summary
2) to see if there is a difference between males and females. Null hypothesis: there is no difference between the bmi scores of males and females. Because the p value is 0. 05, there is a significant difference between men and women"s bmi scores. 2 a) calculate the pearson"s correlation coefficient for 1 rep max and right hand dynamometer grip. Pearson"s correlation coefficient is the r-value which is 0. 45. Any correlation greater than 0. 35 and has a p-value less than 0. 05 is significant. Null hypothesis: there is no significant difference between the 1 rm and right hand dynamometer. Non-directional hypothesis: there is one variable equal to zero. Directional hypothesis: there is no directional hypothesis because there are two tails so they cannot move to one direction versus the other. **this is a non-directional hypothesis, so the null hypothesis is rejected. The coefficient of determination is 0. 20, which indicates that the independent variable is causing 20% of variance in the dependent variable.
