The research examining the effects of preschool childcare has found that children who spent time in daycare perform better on math and language tests than children who stay home with their mothers. The results show that a sample of n = 25 children who attended daycare before starting school had an average score of M = 87 with SS = 1536 on a standardized math test for which the population mean is μ = 81. The population distribution is normal. Use α= .01 a.
