Essay

College students who were classified as either Type A or Type B personalities came to the lab and were frustrated by the experimenter (he gave them anagrams that were unsolvable). Then the experimenter gave them a new set of (solvable) anagrams and timed how long it took them to solve them (in minutes). The following data was obtained:
GROUP $1 =$ Type A personality
GROUP $2 =$ Type $B$ personality
Variable $=$ time to solve the anagrams
$\begin{array} { l c l l } \text { GROUP } & N & \text { Mean } & S D \\ \text { GROUP 1 } & 10 & 5.34 & 1.194 \\ \text { GROUP 2 } & 10 & 5.13 & 1.223 \end{array}$
$t = 1.67 \quad d f = 18 \quad p = 0.257 \quad$ Cohen's $d = .21$
