Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

There was a significant effect of gender at the .01 level, with a t-score of 10.2 for 9 degrees of freedom.
This is not APA style for reporting statistical findings. The sentence should read: There was a significant effect of gender, t (9) = 10.20, p = .01.
