Intro to Public Health
A t-test is a statistical method used to determine if there is a significant difference between the means of two groups, which may be related to certain features or treatments. It helps in making inferences about population parameters based on sample data, and is particularly useful when the sample sizes are small and/or the population standard deviation is unknown. By applying the t-test, researchers can evaluate hypotheses about population means and make decisions based on empirical data.
