Review the following excerpt from a hypothetical research article that compared memory-test performance between two groups of participants: those who consumed a caffeinated beverage before the test and those who consumed a non-caffeinated beverage:
An independent samples t-test was conducted to examine the difference between experimental conditions on test performance. The results indicated a significant difference between participants who consumed the caffeinated beverage and participants who did not, with participants in the caffeinated group (
M = 7.64,
SD = 2.41) performing worse than participants in the non-caffeinated group (
M = 9.81,
SD = 3.16),
t(97) = 2.14,
p < .05.
Write a brief paper explaining what the author means when she says that the results were statistically significant. In other words, what does it mean to say that results are statistically significant? Be sure to explain what a
p value
is and how it relates to
statistical significance.
As a reminder,
M stands for mean,
SD stands for standard deviation, the
t indicates that this study was a t-test, and the
p represents the
p value. You may consult page 353 of your textbook,
Discovering Statistics Using IBM SPSS Statistics, for help interpreting the statistical results listed in the excerpt, but that may not be necessary.
Specifically, be sure to address the following
critical elements:
· Provide a
description of statistical significance.
· Provide a clear and accurate
explanation of
p value
and how it relates to statistical significance.
What to Submit
Submit a 1- to 2-page document with double spacing, 12-point font, and one-inch margins, using APA formatting for any sources cited.

Share a relevant storyideally based on your personal or professional experiencesabout how a security incident originated with an attack vector that was opened, either maliciously or accidentally, by a trusted insider. Focus your discussion on the features that make this particular insider attack unique by describing the salient features of the attack, when and how the breach incident was discovered, the data that was illegally accessed, and the short- and long-term consequences of the attack to the organization.
While threats to the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data may originate from many types of attackers, the information security threats from trusted insiderssuch as employees, vendors, and contractorscan be particularly insidious because the attackers have legitimate credentials on enterprise systems and networks. Insider threats may be difficult to detect because it can be challenging to differentiate between potentially harmful actions and an employees authorized work.
