Question:

The article “The Relationship of Task and Ego Orientation to Sportsmanship Attitudes and the Perceived Legitimacy of Injurious Acts” (Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport [1991]: 79–87) examined the extent of approval of unsporting play and cheating. High school basketball players completed a questionnaire that was used to arrive at an approval score, with higher scores indicating greater approval. A random sample of 56 male players resulted in a mean approval rating for unsportsmanlike play of 2.76, whereas the mean for a random sample of 67 female players was 2.02. Suppose that the two sample standard deviations were .44 for males and .41 for females. Is it reasonable to conclude that the mean approval rating is higher for male players than for female players by more than .5? Use α = .05.
