Question 5

Dr. Aris carried out a cognitive psychology experiment investigating the effect of haptic feedback on spatial reasoning. He tested 10 participants on a 3D block assembly task under two conditions: Condition A (without haptic feedback) and Condition B (with haptic feedback). Dr. Aris decided to carry out a statistical analysis on the number of structural errors made by each participant using a Wilcoxon Signed Ranks test.

Complete Table 1 and calculate the observed value of T T\,T for Dr. Aris's data.
