Q

What is the t-test equation when s’s are not significantly different

A

t = |xbar1 - xbar2|/spooled * sqrt (n1n2/(n1+n2))
spooled = sqrt((sigma(x-xbar)^2) + (sigma(x-xbar)^2)/(n1+n2-2))
spooled = sqrt(s1^2(n1-1)+s2^2(n2-1)/(n1+n2-2))

Q

T-test when standard deviations are significantly different

A

t =|xbar1-xbar2|/sqrt(s1^2/n1+s2^2/n2)
DoF = (s1^2/n1+s2^2/n2)^2/[(s1^2/n1)^2/(n1-1) + (s2^2/n2)^2/(n2-1)]
DoF = (u1^2+u2^2)^2/[u1^4/(n1-1)+u2^4/(n2-1)]
