The Effects of Two Soporific Drugs
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we conduct a one-sample t test using Student’s original sleep data to investigate the question whether two soporific drugs have different effects on patients. In the first section, we give the background and context of the data, along with some of the raw data itself. In the next section we carry out the statistical analysis, and in the last section, we discuss our conclusions and reflect on what we found.

We infused melatonin at doses that produced physiological and supraphysiological steady-state levels in 24 young adults during two daytime bed rest protocols. From 1000 to 1630, subj...
