  3. hello divya……….
    is t test and t test for independent samples different??
    was confused between two examples
    1.for example a patient with pain is given ultrasound and heat comparision is between the most effective treatment looks like a good example for me as it has two independent samples. (t test for independent samples)
    2.but it is given as handsplint for rheumatoid arthritis where there is only one independent sample.
    can you please explain me this??

    • hi laxmi,
      T-test is of two types namely t-test for a)independent samples(unpaired t-test) and b)matched samples(paired t-test).T-test is also called student’s T-test.
      Independent sample means the subjects are assigned randomly to control group or experiment group and treated.
      Paired sample means each subject from experiment group is matched with each subject from control group,based on some common factor.
      It could be 1)age/2)gender/3)pre-test and post-test scores(in which case the person with low score in group A will be matched with person with low scores in group B.For example if I want to study the effect of
      anti-depressants and I choose a group of people with depression then I have a matched sample.
      The handsplint for RA will be considered for unpaired t-test if you’ve randomly assigned subjects to experiment or control group and have given splint to one group and no splint to another.
      The other example you mentioned please clarify if both groups received the same US and heat treatment.if you can type the whole question.it’ll be helpful.
      hope this explanation helps.
