In a study, participants were asked to plunge a hand into icy water and keep it there as long as the pain would allow. In one condition, the participants repeated their favorite curse words while their hands were in the water. In the other condition, the same participants repeated a neutral word.
- Do these data indicate a significant difference in pain tolerance between the two conditions? Use a two-tailed test withα= .05.
