Question 20

A researcher is testing whether the format used to present information affects understanding. Forty adults are allocated to two groups. The first group reads the same 600-word article on a tablet screen, while the second group reads a printed copy. Each adult then answers 12 multiple-choice questions, and the number answered correctly is recorded.

State a null hypothesis for this experiment.
