For an independent samples t-test, list the 3 assumptions underlying the statistical test.

A researcher was interested in comparing the number of campus recreation visits during the semester for STEM/Science undergraduate majors versus non-STEM/Science undergraduate majors. From a computer database that had divided the undergraduate population into STEM/Science undergraduate majors and non-STEM/Science undergraduate major, the researcher randomly selected 100 STEM/Science undergraduate majors and randomly selected 100 non-STEM/Science undergraduate majors, and then obtained data records for the number of campus recreation visits during the Fall term. How many degrees of freedom would this statistical test have?

A researcher was interested in comparing 3 group conditions: Meditation, Progressive Muscle Relaxation PMR), and a Control condition on heart rate. 28 freshmen undergraduates from USF were randomly selected.  From these 28 students, 13 were randomized to the Control Condition, 8 were randomly assigned to Meditation, and 7 were randomly assigned to Progressive Muscle Relaxation. Using a .05 level of significance is there a statistically significant difference between PMR and Meditation?
