Many students have had the unpleasant experience of panicking on a test because the first question was exceptionally difficult. The arrangement of test items was studied for its effect on anxiety. The following scores are measures of ”debilitating test anxiety,” which most of us call panic or blanking out. Is there sufficient evidence to support the claim that the two populations of scores have different means at the 5% significance level?
