Answer to Question 1

A statistically significant result from a hypothesis test simply means that the research result is greater than what would be expected just by chance (without any treatment effect). However, whenever chance is very small, a research result can also be very small and still be significant. Measures of effect size are intended to provide an absolute measure of how big the effect is.

Answer to Question 2

D
