Question

Solve question using R

Dr. Whistle was interested in evaluating whether her therapy for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) was effective for treating a group of trauma (abuse) survivors. Thirty-eight trauma survivors received three weeks of therapy and then completed a PTSD scale. Dr. Whistle’s research hypothesis is that the mean PTSD score for those receiving the therapy will be less than for the general population of trauma survivors (μ = 65, σ = 8). Use null hypothesis testing (all steps) to answer Dr. Whistle’s research question. Be sure to appropriately interpret the confidence interval and effect size (even if it is subjective) and include a general summary of the results. The dataset (below) is entitled ‘ass4_q1.csv’. Use α = .01.
