Please read below. I need help right away. I have posed this problem in three different ways an the only consistant answer I get is instructing me to go pay money to another site. PLEASE HELP!

Inferential Research and Statistics - I need help writing a paper with a hypothesis regarding Clinician's at a clinic who are using a new method to treat veterans for PTSD. Please see below for the data sets to work with. I must decide what the numbers represent. The sample size is 30 for each group. Please see example and groups below.

You have a hypothesis that two drugs have different effects on lowering anxiety. You would have anxiety scores for drug A and anxiety scores for drug B (all after 4 weeks of treatment) to run inferential analysis for after 4 weeks.

• Null hypothesis is H₀: drug A = drug B
• Research hypothesis is H₁:_drug A ≠ drug B
• Dependent variable: Anxiety score changed after treatment.
• Independent variable: drug treatment

Because you did not state a direction in your hypotheses (better than or worse than), this will be a two-tailed test. You are looking for differences in either direction. You would set your alpha level of .05 and have a sample for each group of 30 people that were volunteers for the study.
