A researcher is investigating whether a reading intervention program improves reading comprehension for second graders. He collects a random sample of second graders and randomly assigns each second grader to participate in the reading intervention program or not participate in the program. The researcher knows that the standard deviation of the reading comprehension scores among all second graders is ? = 25.24.

Group 1 consists of n? = 52 second graders who did not participate in the program. Their mean reading comprehension score is M? = 36.8. Group 2 consists of n? = 56 second graders who did participate in the program. Their mean reading comprehension score is M? = 52.4.

A researcher is investigating whether a reading intervention program improves reading comprehension for second graders. He collects a random sample of second graders and randomly assigns each second grader to participate in the reading intervention program or not participate in the program.
