With an H statistic of 7.1, which is greater than the critical value for a p level of 0.05, we can reject the null hypothesis that there are no differences among the three ethnic groups for ranked language skills. Therefore, the conclusion would be to reject the null hypothesis and conclude there are differences among these groups for ranked language skills.
