Suppose you conduct an experiment with 20 subjects and the turns out to be 0.69,which is not statistically significant.Which of the following is the correct way to report your results? A) = 0.69,p > 0.05 B)t(20)= 0.69,p < 0.05 C)t(19)= 0.69,p < 0.05 D)t(19)= 0.69,p > 0.05

The correct approach to report the results would be to use the t-test, as the sample size is smaller than 30, and state the degrees of freedom correctly, which is 19 (n-1). The t-value should be reported along with the p-value, which is greater than the significance level of 0.05, indicating that the result is not statistically significant. Hence option D is correct. Option A's issue is incorrectly formatted variable name followed by a p-value. Option B's mistake is that the t-value is wrongly expressed in the decimal format, and the degrees of freedom are missing. Option C is only wrong because the degrees of freedom are short by one.
