The procedure computes the differences between values of the two variables for each case and tests whether the average differs from 0. The following table explains that the three paired sample t –test from the tappers of NR in Kanyakumari district. Table 4.6 Paired sample Pair 1 Pair 2 Pair 3 Pair 4 Pair 5 Pair 6 Pair 7 Pair 8 Pair 9 Pair 10 Paired sample t- test for Natural Rubber Tapper in Kanyakumari District Sig (2 Kalkulam taluk t-test -5.6293 -4.8972 -3.6548 4.050 -10.662 -9.918 -13.173 tailed) Status S S S S S S S .830 NS 1.885 NS -11.518 S Vilavancode taluk t-test -6.461 -6.532 -3.934 Sig (2 tailed) Status S S S 2.214 NS 2.207 NS 6.093 S -3.042 NS -12.219 11.481 S S 1.000 NS Thovalai taluk t-test Sig (2 tailed) Status -2.408 NS -5.809 S -2.536 NS 9.143 -9.049 5.385 6.595 -9.616 7.389 S S S S S S -1.795 NS Source: Primary data, Significance at .01 levels The above table stated that, since the calculated value of all the pair’s t-test is greater 0.01 levels. So the null hypothesis is accepted at 1 per cent level. It can be concluded that there is no significant differences, in Kalkulam taluk from pair 1 to pair 7 and pair 10are accepted, remaining pairs 8 and 9 are rejected. In Vilavancode taluk, from pair 1 to pair 3, pair 6, pair 8 and pair 9 are accepted, there is no significant among the pairs, and remaining pair 4, pair 5, pair 7 and pair 10 are rejected, because there is a significant among the pairs. In Thovalai taluk, from pair 4 to pair 9, pair 2 are accepted, there is no significant among the pairs, and remaining pair 1, pair 3, and pair 10 are rejected, because there is a significant among the pairs. 115
