The dependent variable “CGPA” stands for one’s College Grade Point Average and measures one’s academic performance on a scale of 2.5 (minimum score) to 4.0 (maximum score). “WatchTV” is a variable that indicates how many minutes per day a person typically spends watching TV.
    We conduct a two-sided test with α = 0.05 (alpha =5%). As for can we conclude based on these results? 


    1. FALSE: Among men, watching TV has a significant negative influence on one’s study performance, among women, watching TV has a significant positive influence on one’s study performance.
    2. TRUE: Among men, watching TV has a significant negative influence on one’s study performance, in women watching TV has no significant influence on one’s study performance.
    3. FALSE: In both men and women, watching TV has a significant positive influence on one’s study performance.
