Abstract: Abstract Independent samples arise when there is no natural pairing of the observations. For example, we may randomly select five females and five males and measure their heights, or measure the heartbeats of six joggers and of six resting people. As in Chapter 2 our interest is normally in the average difference in height between the females and males in our study population, or in the average difference in heartbeat between resting and jogging humans.
