The document provides an example of how to report the results of a Mann-Whitney U test in APA style. It describes a study examining whether football or basketball players eat more slices of pizza. After collecting the data, a Mann-Whitney U test was conducted to account for outliers among basketball players. The summary includes reporting the median number of slices for each group, the U value, and p-value to indicate football players (median = 9) ate significantly more slices than basketball players (median = 5).
