Question

A group of Sports Science students (n = 20) are selected from the population to investigate whether a 12-week plyometric-training programmed improves their standing long jump performance. In order to test whether this training improves performance, the students are tested for their long jump performance before they undertake a plyometric-training programme and then again at the end of the programmed .The following table present the results of before and after the training programmed. Test the claim that their long jump performance is higher after the training.
