Analysis

Experiment 1

The overall ANOVA p-value was 1.40083E-16 and since it was less than 0.05, or of 95% confidence, it was statistically significant. The t-tests confirmed that all the p-values were less than the Bonferroni Correction value, therefore all the comparisions were statistically significant. The 0-mg vs. 15-mg comparison had the most significance.


Experiment 2

The t-test value was 0.867403497 and because it was greater than 0.05, the difference in inflammotin concentrations between the two groups was not statistically significant.



Summary/Discussion

After analyzing the data given through both experimental scenarios, we were able to determine which results were statistically significant. For the trials run on human subjects, the overall ANOVA p-value was calculated to be 1.40083E-16, and since it was less than 0.05 it was considered statistically significant. The individual t-tests comparing each set of human data confirmed that all the p-values were less than the Bonferroni Correction value, therefore all the comparisions were statistically significant. The 0-mg vs. 15-mg comparison had the most significance. In the trials performed on the rats, a t-test returned a p-value of 0.867403497. Since this value is greater than 0.05, we can infer that the difference between the two rat trials was not statistically significant.
