Matched Pairs t-procedures:
Subjects are matched according to characteristics that affect the response, and then one member is randomly assigned to treatment 1 and the other to treatment 2. Recall that twin studies provide a natural pairing. Before and after studies are examples of matched pairs designs, but they require careful interpretation because random assignment is not used.
Apply the one-sample t procedures to the differences

Example #1Archaeologists use the chemical composition of clay found in pottery artifacts to determine whether different sites were populated by the same ancient people. They collected five random samples from each of two sites in Great Britain and measured the percentage of aluminum oxide in each. Based on these data, do you think the same people used these two kiln sites? Use a 95% confidence interval for the difference in aluminum oxide content of pottery made at the sites and assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Can you say there is no difference between the sites?

P: μn = New Forrest percentage of aluminum oxide
The true mean difference in aluminum oxide levels between the New Forrest and Ashley Trails.
μa = Ashley Trails percentage of aluminum oxide
μd = μn - μa = Difference in aluminum oxide levels

C: I am 95% confident the true mean difference in aluminum oxide levels between the New Forrest and Ashley Trails is between –1.754 and 3.4743.
Can you say there is no difference between the sites?
Yes, zero is in the confidence interval, so it is safe to say there is no difference.

Example #2The National Endowment for the Humanities sponsors summer institutes to improve the skills of high school language teachers. One institute hosted 20 Spanish teachers for four weeks. At the beginning of the period, the teachers took the Modern Language Association’s listening test of understanding of spoken Spanish. After four weeks of immersion in Spanish in and out of class, they took the listening test again. (The actual spoken Spanish in the two tests was different, so that simply taking the first test should not improve the score on the second test.) Below is the pretest and posttest scores. Give a 90% confidence interval for the mean increase in listening score due to attending the summer institute. Can you say the program was successful?

C: I am 90% confident the true mean difference in test scores between the Pretest and Posttestis between –2.689 and –0.2115.
Can you say the program was successful?
Yes, zero is not in the confidence interval, so the pretest score is lower than the posttest score.
