Question
A 2006 study was conducted on feelings of regret regarding relationships and differences in those feelings between men and women. The experimental group consisted of 40 women and 29 men, mean age 19 years (sd = 1.18). Each participant completed a questionnaire according to the following instructions: Looking back on your relationship is there anything you really regret a lot? Something you wish you had done differently. Something TRUE that you would have liked to do or not done. Teun and Gijs have to do a little research for their statistics course. After reading an article about the research on regrets, they did a similar research themselves. Together they made a list of potentially embarrassing or uncomfortable situations that occur in relationships (answering the question “Am I too fat?” with “Yes,” going to the sauna together, etc.). Forty fellow students are asked to participate in this study: 20 female students and 20 male students. They are asked to indicate how much they regret the situations described (TRUE where 0 means “no regret” and 10 means “very much regret”). Half of the women and half of the men are asked to answer the questions about a romantic relationship (a steady boyfriend or girlfriend), and the other half are asked to do so about a friendly relationship (a close friend or girlfriend).
SPSS output of the analysis results of the collected data is given below.
TRUE is the value of the test size testing the differences in degree of regret scores between romantic relationships and friendly relationships?
- FALSE: 8.297
- FALSE: 0.391
- TRUE: 16.298
- FALSE: 8.203
