So far, we have dealt with data measured on a single variable at a single point in time, allowing us to gain an understanding of the logic and process behind statistics and hypothesis testing.

Now, we will look at a slightly different type of data that has new information we couldn’t get at before: change. Specifically, we will look at how the value of a variable, within people, changes across two time points. This is a very powerful thing to do, and, as we will see shortly, it involves only a v
