The p value is known to be greater than 0.05 and therefore the null hypothesis is accepted.
Therefore, there is absence of any difference in the means of thrill, agression and risk
acceptance. From the solution provided in the table it can be concluded that there is absence
of any difference in the means of aggression and risk acceptance between the genders. Here
also P value is above 0.05 which sates there is no difference between the means of the
variable.
b. Test for the difference in mean aggression, thrill seeking and risk accepting
between different metropolitan background statuses.

The conclusion then is that there is sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is no
difference in means of driver aggression since the p value is 0.024 which is less than 0.05.
d. Test for the difference in mean aggression, thrill seeking and risk accepting
