b. One of your classmates, who claims to be good at statistics, complaint about your confidence interval calculation. She asserts that the psychological distress scores are normally distributed, which in turns makes the confidence interval calculation meaningless. Assume that she is correct about her distribution of psychological distress scores. Does that imply that the calculation of a confidence interval is not appropriate? why?or why not?
