According to the Kolmogorov-Smirnova (K-S test and Shapiro-!ilk test (!" Taped # (K-S
p $ %&'%% ! p $ %&)** and Taped ' (K-S p $ %&'%% ! p $ %&'+# data is normall,
distribted& This is becase the tests for both variables have p . %&%/ 0hich implies that the
h,pothesis for normalit, is not re1ected and therefore the data of these variables has a normal
distribtion&
Smmar, statement
According to the reslts of the anal,sis" the 2ot Taped grop 0as able to grip 0ith the most
pressre& This is contingent on the fact that the 2ot Taped grop had higher mean vales 3
S4 compared to the Taped grop (See graph For instance Taped # had a mean of '5&663
*&)* 0hile Taped ' had a mean of '5 3 6&+)& Conversel," 2ot Taped # had a mean of '/&)/
3 6&+* 0ith 2ot Taped ' having a mean of '/&)/ 3 *&%5 indicating that the 2ot Taped grop
cold grip comparativel, higher pressre than the 2ot Taped grop& 7ased on the reslt of the
K-S and ! tests" all the variables had a normal distribtion since according to the normalit,
tests" all the data of the variables cold not effectivel, re1ect the nll h,pothesis of normalit,&
According to the standard deviation reslts" Taped # had the highest standard deviation
impl,ing the Taped # 0as highl, variable& Conversel," Taped ) had the lo0est standard
deviation" impl,ing that most of the sata in the variable 0as relativel, concentrated arond
the mean& 7ased on these reslts it can be conclded that the se of 8inc o9ide tape redces
the grip of montain climbers& These findings indicate that the se of tape in montain
climbing decreases the abilit, of the montain climber to effectivel, grip srfaces&
