Which test is used for two samples in continuous data analysis?

  1. Paired T-test

  2. Student T-test

  3. One sample T-test

  4. ANOVA

The correct answer is: Student T-test

In continuous data analysis, the Student T-test is used for comparing the means of two independent samples. The Student t-test is appropriate when the samples being compared are independent of each other, meaning that the data points in one sample are not related or linked to the data points in the other sample. The Paired T-test, on the other hand, is used when comparing the means from the same group or item at two different points in time or under two different conditions. The One-sample T-test is used to compare the mean of a single sample to a known value or a hypothesized population mean. ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) is a statistical technique used to compare the means of three or more independent groups.
