Example of Descriptive Statistics Showing an Effect

In a study comparing two groups, the treatment group (n=50n = 50) has a mean score of 34.3234.32 (SD=10.45SD = 10.45) and the control group (n=50n = 50) has a mean score of 21.4521.45 (SD=9.22SD = 9.22), resulting in an extremely strong Cohen's dd of 1.311.31. These descriptive statistics alone clearly indicate that the treatment was effective, although inferential statistics (like a tt-test) are still required for a formal research report.
