Refer to Exercise 13.26. To determine whether the type of phone usage affects reaction times, another study was launched. A group of drivers was asked to participate in a discussion. Half the group engaged in simple chitchat, and the other half participated in a political discussion. Once again, reaction times were measured. Can we infer that the type of telephone discussion affects reaction times?


Exercise 13.26


Recent studies seem to indicate that using a cell phone while driving is dangerous. One reason for this is that a driver’s reaction time may slow while he or she is talking on the phone. Researchers at Miami (Ohio) University measured the reaction times of a sample of drivers who owned a cell phone. Half the sample was tested while on the phone and the other half was tested while not on the phone. Can we conclude that reaction times are slower for drivers using cell phones?
