Jump to navigation Jump to search

Where x¯ and y¯ are the two means and sx and sy respectively are their Standard Deviations, and nx and ny are their sample sizes respectively, the test statistic is:

t=x¯−y¯sxy¯,

where:

p=2Pr⁡(tv≥|t|),
v=nx+ny−2
sxy2=((nx−1)sx2+(ny−1)sy2)/v, and
sxy¯2=sxy2(nx−1+ny−1).
