Anthony Greene Paired t-test: tD Introduction To The Repeated Measures Design:What is a repeated measure? Finding an Experimental Effect In a Single Group: Before vs. After Creating a new distribution tD. Reduces Sampling Error: It’s a more powerful test Limited Applicability Before-After It doesn’t have to be “Before-After” Matched Subject Design For a given study the two groups of subjects could be closely matched Age IQ Blood Pressure Income Education Level The Basic Idea Standard t-test The Basic Idea Standard t-test The Basic Idea Standard t-test Is 13 different than 17? Or 13-17 different than 0? The Basic Idea Repeated Measures t-test The Basic Idea Repeated Measures t-test Create A New Variable, D The Basic Idea Repeated Measures t-test Is 4 different than 0? The Basic Idea The fundamental advantage? The error term in the within subjects design is smaller In the simplified example, the standard error terms would be higher in the two sample version versus the difference test in this case the sMD is zero The advantage is that individual differences  2, 13, 24, and 5, 16, 27 are not part of the error in tD The Basic Idea Are there limitations The repeated measure design before – after must be used cautiously used in many experimental designs Memory Subjects learn Medicine and Clinical Psych Substantial time passes Social Psych Minor deceptions Loss of half the degrees freedom Distribution of the Paired t-Statistic The paired t-test for two population means Slide 1 of 3 The paired t-test for two population means Slide 2 of 3 The paired t-test for two population means Slide 3 of 3 The number of doses of medication needed for asthma attacks before and after relaxation training.
