   Question

   A researcher wants to test whether people lose weight after using a product that would lead to weight reduction. Suppose that on average a decrease in weight (measured in kilograms) is indeed found.

   When could one conclude that the product actually leads to weight reduction?

   
   
   1. TRUE: When the absolute t value found is greater than the absolute critical t value.
   2. FALSE: When the absolute t value found is less than the absolute critical t value.
   3. FALSE: When the found t value is 0.
   4. FALSE: When the critical t value is 0.
   
   

   Solution

   We can conclude that the product actually leads to weight reduction when the absolute t value found is greater than the absolute critical t value.
