t-test (based on q.11 from chapter 10) Anxiety affects our ability to make decisions. Remmers and Zander (2018) demonstrated that anxiety also prevents us from intuiting about our environments. In their experiment, 111 participants were randomly assigned to receive either an anxiety-inducing statement (e.g., “safety is guaranteed neither in our neighborhoods nor in our own homes”) accompanied by a photograph of a dangerous situation, or an emotionally neutral statement (e.g., “a rolling pin is a kitchen tool that helps to extend dough”) accompanied by an innocuous image. Researchers then measured participants’ intuition index, which assesses ability to identify a word (e.g., “sea”) that was semantically related to a list of three words (e.g., “foam”, “deep”, and “salt”). Researchers observed reduced intuition among subjects who received anxiety-inducing statements and imagery than among those who received innocuous stimuli. Data like those observed by the researchers are listed below. Neural Anxiety-Inducing 19 12 10 11 11 12 Is the homogeneity of variance assumption met or violated? Report the test statistic and p value to support your decision. Use JASP to examine whether the test scores significantly lower for the participants who received anxiety-inducing statements.
