Statistical Measures

T-test statistical tests can only be used when you are comparing one categorical variable (with two groups or categories) and one continuous variable. You need to choose a statistical test that is appropriate for your predictor and outcome variables. If you need more help, you can revisit the SmartGuides or you can email a mentor for help.


Evaluation
The relationship is the same as I predicted, the relationship between my predictor and outcome is statistically significant. The data does support my hypothosis.

Summary of findings
I found that girls of any age have more or less tattoos.
