A cognitive psychologist wants to determine if there is a significant difference in the reaction times (measured in milliseconds) of participants completing a vigilance task under two conditions: high background noise and quiet. The researcher uses an independent groups design. The reaction time data is found to be normally distributed and the two groups display homogeneity of variance.
