THEORETICAL TEST
Theoretical – test

-it is used to identify the difference of scores between two groups that are depending on
a single variable. There are two types of theoretical – test, the independent theoretical –
test and non – independent/dependent theoretical–test. It is used if the sample size is
less than 30.

1. Independent Theoretical – test – which is used in determining the difference of

scores from two sample groups.

2. Non – dependent Theoretical – test – which is used in determining the difference of

scores from two tests that are associated with one another and one sample group is
used.

Formula for independent t- test :

t= X 1 – X2

SS1 +SS2 1 + 1

n1+n2-2 n1 n2

Where:

X1 = Mean for group 1

X2 = Mean for group 2

SS1 = The sum of squares for group 1,

SS2 = The sum of squares for group 2,

n1= Number of subjects in group1,

n2 = Number of subjects in group 2

Module in Research Project/ Inquiry, Immersion and Investigation – Week 2 Page 2

NOTE:

To get the sum of squares, a formula is needed:

SS1= ∑ X1 2 – (∑ X1)2

n1

SS2= ∑ X2 2 – (∑ X2)2

n2

EXAMPLE (A)

INDEPENDENT T-TEST

Find the theoretical test value and determine if there is a significant difference between
the scores in mathematical assessment of two sample groups from two sections

∑X1 = 488 ∑(X1) = 23, 938 ∑ X2 = 479 ∑(X2) =23,269

1. Compute for X1 and X2:

n1 = 10 (total no. of students per section) n2 = 10

X1 = ∑X1 X2 = ∑X2

n1 n2

X1 = 488 X2 = 479

10 10

X1 = 4.88 X2 = 4.79

2. Compute for SS1 and SS2:

SS1= ∑ (X1 2) – (∑ X1)2

n1

SS1= 23, 938 – (488)2

10

SS1 = 23,938 - 238, 144

10

SS1 = 23, 938 – 23,814.4

SS1 = 123.6

SS2= ∑ (X2)2 – (∑ X2)2

n2

SS2= 23, 269– (479)2

10

SS2= 23, 269 – 229, 441

10

SS2 =23,269 – 22,944.1

SS2 =324.9

Solution:

t= X 1 – X2

SS1 +SS2 1 + 1

n1+n2 - 2 n1 n2

Where:
NOTE: Use 2 as a consant number
X1 = 4.88 because there are 2 sample groups
(Section A and Section B) in the given
X2 = 4.79 example.
SS1 = 123.6

SS2 = 324.9

n1= 10

n2 =10

t= X1 – X 2

SS1 +SS2 1 + 1

n1+n2 - 2 n1 n2

t= 4.88 – 4.79
