Competitive rowers What aspects of rowing technique distinguish between novice and skilled competitive rowers? Researchers compared two randomly selected groups of female competitive rowers: a group of skilled rowers and a group of novices. The researchers measured many mechanical aspects of rowing style as the subjects rowed on a Stanford Rowing Ergometer. One important variable is the angular velocity of the knee, which describes the rate at which the knee joint opens as the legs push the body back on the sliding seat. The data show no outliers or strong skewness. Here is the SAS computer output:34 TTEST PROCEDURE Variable: KNEE GROUP N Mean Std Dev Std Error SKILLED 10 4.182 0.479 0.151 NOVICE 8 3.010 0.959 0.339 The researchers believed that the knee velocity would be higher for skilled rowers. Do the data provide convincing evidence to support this belief?
