Question

Recall from earlier in the course you learned about Dr. Harold Shipman. A researcher is interested in
reviewing the public inquiry data from Dr. Shipman’s case and exploring whether the age of his
victims differed based on gender.

Under the heading “Results” present your findings (i.e., what you found).
Include at least one measure of central tendency and variability. An assumption check
(describe what you did and what you found, as needed), check for potential outliers,
and present the findings of your inferential test (i.e., your critical value and p value), as
appropriate.
