Recall the study, reported in Exercise 7.8.1, in which Dora et al. (A-37), investigated spinal canal dimensions in 30 subjects symptomatic with disc herniation selected for a discectomy and 45 asymptomatic individuals (control group). One of the areas of interest was determining if there is a difference between the two groups in the spinal canal cross-sectional area (cm) between vertebrae L5/S1. The data in the following table are simulated to be consistent with the results reported in the paper. Do these simulated data provide evidence for us to conclude that a difference in the spinal canal cross-sectional area exists between a population of subjects with disc herniations and a population of those who do not have disc herniations? Let a = .05.
