A researcher is interested in whether a difference can occur between scores on one of the Maryland Addiction Questionnaire (MAQ) subtest, namely the Motivation for Continued Treatment (MOT) among inmates incarcerated for operating a vehicle Under the Influence(OUI). One group of subjects was assigned to a treatment facility for dealing with drug abuse issues, and the other group of 20 subjects continued in the main jail with no treatment being provided. The scores follow:
A researcher is interested in whether a difference can occur between scores on one of the Maryland Addiction Questionnaire (MAQ) subtest, namely the Motivation for Continued Treatment (MOT) among inmates incarcerated for operating a vehicle Under the Influence(OUI). One group of subjects was assigned to a treatment facility for dealing with drug abuse issues, and the other group of 20 subjects continued in the main jail with no treatment being provided. The scores follow:
Treatment group 47, 50, 41, 52, 48, 46, 50, 44, 60, 48, 46, 47, 41, 39, 58, 45, 62, 50, 39, 47
Non treated group 41, 45, 40, 40, 33, 41, 42, 43, 37, 33, 53, 40, 38, 43, 55, 31, 37, 53, 38, 40
- Test the research hypothesis that there will be a difference between the two sets of scores (find the t score)
- Calculate a confidence interval at the .95 level for establishing the true population difference between the groups [find the CI(confidence interval)]
- Indicate the type of research and, if appropriate, the experimental design.

Thank you. I had some trouble understanding some of your writing and it would have been more helpful if typed.
