- t-test calculator (courtesy of GraphPad)
You provide either raw data or (mean, standard deviation, number of samples), it returns the t-test score and the probability of score arising if both samples were taken from the same population.
- t-test probability calculator (courtesy of Daniel Soper)
You provide score from t-test and degrees of freedom, it returns probability of score arising if both samples were taken from the same population.
- VCU Library
Apart from its many other merits, the library enables you to reach electronic journal articles that would otherwise be restricted.
