Epidemiology
A t-test is a statistical method used to determine if there is a significant difference between the means of two groups. This test is particularly useful when dealing with small sample sizes and is based on the t-distribution, which accounts for the variability in small samples. The t-test helps researchers make inferences about population means from sample data, which is a key aspect of hypothesis testing and inferential statistics.
