Question:

The article “Religion and Well-Being Among Canadian University Students: The Role of Faith Groups on Campus” (Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion [1994]: 62–73) compared the self-esteem of students who belonged to Christian clubs and students who did not belong to such groups. Each student in a random sample of n = 169 members of Christian groups (the affiliated group) completed a questionnaire designed to measure self-esteem. The same questionnaire was also completed by each student in a random sample of n = 124 students who did not belong to a religious club (the unaffiliated group). The mean self-esteem score for the affiliated group was 25.08, and the mean for the unaffiliated group was 24.55. The sample standard deviations weren’t given in the article, but suppose that they were 10 for the affiliated group and 8 for the unaffiliated group. Is there evidence that the true mean self-esteem score differs for affiliated and unaffiliated students? Test the relevant hypotheses using a significance level of .01.
