JMP  Two-­‐Sample  Tests  

 1)  Choose  "Oneway"  or  "Two-­‐Sample  t-­‐test"  from  the  JMP  Starter  window  "Basic"  category.  

   2)  Set  your  response/dependent/y  variable  and  your  treatment/independent/grouping/x  variable.

 3)  Check  for  homogeneity  (sameness)  of  variance.  Click  on  the  red  triangle  next  to  the  plot  and  choose  "Unequal  Variances"  from  the  menu.  

   

4)  Examine  the  tests  of  homogeneity  of  variance.    If  you  reject  homogeneity  of  variance  then  choose  "t  Test"  from  the  magic  red  triangle  shown  in  step  3.    If  you  fail  to  reject  homogeneity  of  variance  then  choose  "Means/ANOVA/Pooled  t"  from  the  magic  red  triangle.    Either  way,  you  will  get  t-­‐test  results  that  look  like  those  below.  

 5)  Now,  look  at  the  way  JMP  set  up  the  null  and  alternate.    Here,  JMP  did    natural-­‐commercial  (red  box).    If  you  set  up  your  null  and  alternate  the  same  way  (e.g.  µnatural-­‐µcommercial  =  0,  then  JMP's  left  and  right  tail  tests  will  correspond  to  yours.    If  you  set  it  up  in  the  opposite  sense  (e.g.  µcommercial  -­‐  µnatural)  compared  to  JMP,  the  tails  are  reversed  and  you  should  read  JMP's  right  tail  p-­‐value  (blue  box  below)  as  your  left  tail  and  JMP's  left  tail,  is  your  right  tail.    The  two-­‐tailed  case  is  the  two-­‐tailed  case,  there  is  no  difference.
