Dr. Aris conducted a Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks test on health psychology data evaluating nicotine dependence scores in a cohort of smokers before and after a six-week cognitive-behavioural intervention. The calculated (observed) value of T T\,T was 8.
The critical value of T T\,T at the p≤0.05 p \le 0.05\,p≤0.05 level of significance for a directional (one-tailed) hypothesis where N=12N = 12N=12 is 17.
