A researcher wanted to study the effect of alcohol on reaction time. She hypothesized that alcohol will INCREASE reaction time (participants will take longer to react). She selected a sample of n= 36 participants from Rutgers University. The 36 participants each consumed a 6-ounce glass of wine. Thirty minutes later, the researcher measured each participant’s reaction time, using a standardized driving simulation task for which the regular population has a µ = 400 msec reaction time with a σ = 48. The reaction time mean for the sample was M= 412 msec. Are the data sufficient to conclude that the alcohol significantly increased reaction time?
