Hello,

Can you please take a look if I solved question 1 correctly? God bless!

1. Would the amount of skewness and kurtosis in these variables affect the analysis? How do you know? Give numerical values to support your conclusion.

The skewness and kurtosis in these variables affected the analysis because the skewness for pre-workout was calculated as 1.870/. 687=2.721, and the kurtosis was calculated as 3.122/1.334=2.340; for post-workout, skewness was calculated as 1.885/. 687=2.743, and the kurtosis was calculated as 3.195/1.334=2.395.The values are not within the acceptable range of -1.96 to 1.96
