IIn the following study one was interested in comparing the reaction time to a stimulus when the subject was under the influence of three different drugs. For this purpose the researcher formed at random four groups of n = 15 subjects. The subjects from Group 1 (control group) receivedno drug while the subjects from Groups 2, 3 and 4 were treated with drugs A, Band C respectively.
