A researcher wanted to determine whether showing a word upside down versus right side up affects memory of the word.  Thirty students were randomly divided into two groups.  One group were shown a list of words right side up, the other group were shown the same list of words upside down.  The number of words each student could recall from the list was recorded.  What type of t test should be used the analyze the data?

 

A. t test for independent groups

B. t test for dependent groups.
