Given effect size and confidence interval, interpret the results. Be sure to

(1) tell what was done,

(2) present some facts,

(3) interpret the results, and

(4) make a suggestion for future research. (Assume the test is two-tailed and α = .05.)

Given the supplied information, interpret the results. A nurse practitioner has compared the blood pressure of a sample (N = 24) of people who are heavy salt users (M = 138, s = 16) to blood pressure in the general population (μ = 120) to see if high salt consumption were related to raised or lowered blood pressure. She found:

• t_cv = 2.069
• t = 5.50

• d = 1.13

• 95% CI [11.23, 24.77]
