Applied researchers are sometimes confronted with the problem of analysing pretest–post‐test data when pairwise information for individual subjects is not available. A dependent t test should be computed; however, when the data cannot be paired, the investigator is faced with performing an independent t test. In order to solve the problem, three methods are offered. When there are missing post‐test data, other analytical alternatives are given.
