Stats question..

Podiatry Arena members do not see these ads

Quick question for the statasticians and researchers out there.

If I was to measure two groups (N=40 ish overall... groups are Treatment vs Sham) pre and post intervention for a single intervention what would be the best test to use?

I was thinking a t-test and found the "two-group post test-only randomized experiment t-test" detailed here: www.socialresearchmethods.net/kb/expsimp.php

Any thoughts whether this would be the right statistical analysis to use?

Regards,

Sam
