Question 2

Imagine I conducted the following experiment: I used gender as a nonmanipulated independent variable and measured performance in my class. I measured performance by ranking everyone in the class, giving the person with the highest grade a 1, the person with the 2nd highest grade a 2, and so forth. Which statistic would I use to determine any differences in performance between these two groups?
 
  What will be an ideal response?
