Solution

To answer this question, we need to know the exact p-value reported in the study. The p-value is a statistical measure that helps scientists determine whether their hypotheses are correct.

  1. If the p-value is less than 0.05 (which is the 5% level of significance mentioned), then we can reject the null hypothesis. The null hypothesis is typically a statement of 'no effect' or 'no difference'. In this case, the null hypothesis would be 'the type of facial expression does not cause a change in trustworthiness ratings'. So, if the p-value is less than 0.05, we can claim that 'the type of facial expression causes a change in trustworthiness ratings' for these undergraduate students.

  2. If the p-value is greater than 0.05, then we cannot reject the null hypothesis. This means we do not have enough evidence to claim that 'the type of facial expression causes a change in trustworthiness ratings'.

Remember, a low p-value (less than 0.05) indicates that the observed data would be quite unlikely if the null hypothesis were true. So, a low p-value can be taken as evidence against the null hypothesis.

Without knowing the exact p-value reported in the study, we cannot definitively answer this question.

After viewing the image, participants were asked to rate the person's trustworthiness on a scale of 0 to 100 points. The researchers conducted a two sample t-test, using the following hypotheses: • Ho: The underlying mean trustworthiness rating for the happy face is the same as the underlying mean trustworthiness rating for the more neutral face • Hy: The underlying mean trustworthiness rating for the happy face is not the same as the underling mean trustworthiness rating for the more neutral face The researchers found a difference of 1.3 points between the mean trustworthiness rating for each group (p-value = 0.0243), with the group that were shown an image of an Al- generated person with a happy face having the higher mean. The observed difference of 1.3 points is ? or is not statistically significant at 10% level?

The face value concept is important here, especially for the motivation of participants in the test. Consider a participant who contributes time and energy into a research study but does not believe the test is representing their characteristics appropriately.
