Testing the difference between the respondents demographic groups As mentioned in chapter 4: table 4-3, there was a very different between the number of respondents within some demographic groups, e.g. the gender groups compromised 185 males and 25 females and similarly, the academic background groups compromised 3 high school, 185 graduate and 85 postgraduate holders. Therefore, generalising the results of testing the difference between the means of these groups may be invalid and meaningfulness
GROUP 1 Article Review QUESTION • Does arthroscopic treatment of shoulder dislocations result in lower dislocation recurrence rate than non-operative rehabilitation? CLINICAL BOTTOM LINE • Arthroscopic Bankart repair of first-time anterior shoulder dislocations significantly reduces the recurrence rate of shoulder dislocations in young athletes when compared to traditional non-operative rehabilitation. SUMMARY OF KEY EVIDENCE (Study Design, Sample, Intervention/Methods, Outcome

with the post-hoc tests. In detail, this table shows that averaged SBP regardless the groups (PA or PA-P) was significantly reduced from Baseline to During-Time (p-value=0.0008) as well as to Post-Time (p-value=0.0267). On the other hand, the significance of the interaction,
Functional braces reduced the abduction angle in the knee when forces were applied at 0 degrees of flexion, while prophylactic knee braces had no effect on joint movement. In functional bracing conditions at a knee flexion of 30 degrees, the abduction angle reduced from 0 percent to 22 percent. When prophylactic braces were applied, there was no change in the angle, suggesting that there was no effect between the non-braced and prophylactic braces conditions.(4/568) When the MCL was intact, neither
3.7. One-Sample t-Test Fallout Rate To determine if there was a difference in fallout rates between white males and females by race as well as other nonwhite males, a set of one-sample t-tests was used. Table 6 presents a comparison of white males to females by race and nonwhite males. For females, the test indicated that the white males’ (20.28) fallout rate was sig-nificantly lower than fallout rates for Black females (M = 21.84, SD = 0.85), t(4) = 4.12, p =.015, d = 0.82 and significantly greater
These tools were used to collect data on demographics, risk for falls, and social networks measure. The demographics tool was used to describe the characteristics of the participants. The data from the demographics was not used for any statistical analysis to measure the relationship between the variables. The FRQ tool helped to measure the dependent variable of the study; the risk for falls among community-dwelling older adults. Lastly, the LSNS tool was used to measure the independent variable

Study Purpose: The purpose in this study is very clear because it explains the conclusion that the researchers hope to find. The purpose was briefly stated in the abstract, and then in more details in the introduction. Therefore, the question that is being asked in this study is very relevant for the real world. The overall purpose of this study is to examine or proof the negative effects of gender stereotype in girls. The purpose has the potential to elaborate suggestions for future research
The null hypothesis is the two means are equal. The alternative hypothesis is the mean of the same gender is less than the mean of the mixed gender (a left tailed test). The significance level for this test was .05. Using SPSS an independent t-test was conducted. Results The SPSS analysis provided a mixed gender group setting mean of 46 smiles with a standard deviation of 12. The same gender group setting produced a mean of 18
