Oishi and Schimmack (2010) report that people who move from home to home frequently as children tend to have lower than average levels of well-being as adults. To further examine this relationship, a psychologist obtains a sample of n = 12 young adults who each experienced five or more different homes before they were 16 years old. These participants were given a standardized well-being questionnaire for which the general population has an average score of ? = 40. The sample of well-being scores had an average of M = 37 and SS = 118.03.   Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population of well-being scores. Write a sentence showing how the outcome of the hypothesis test, the measure of effect size, and the confidence interval would appear in a research report.
