Hello,

Attached is a data file I created for a survey project I am working on.  The aim of the research is to determine if church attendence has an effect on understanding of theology.  There were 9 questions on the survey, each of which are inputted into the data file.  The 10th question is the number of weeks the respondanst claimed they went to church each year.  The last column, tot_und, is simply a total score added up from each of the first 9 questions.

I’m certain I put the information into the data file the way it is supposed to go, so all I need to know is what type of test I should run.  It is either one of the t tests or a one or two-way ANOVA.  Those are the only options presented.  I’m fairly certain I know what to do, but I would like a second opinion. 

So it is a simple question:  which statistical test do I run?  I don’t need the test to be run, so the answer is as simple as “t test for independant means” or “one-way ANOVA,” etc.  Quick and simple.
