For this comparison, we are looking at how much assistance was required by the families during the activities sent home. The findings indicate that at the 0.5 p level, there was no significant difference. Since there was no significant difference in the assistance required, we retain the null hypothesis. The variables are related as the number of participants in the activity could determine how much assistance the child required for the activity.
