To examine the effect of high-dose green tea extract on weight loss, researchers conducted a randomized, double-blind trial on a random sample of 115 women with obesity from Taiwan. Some of these women were randomly assigned to the main treatment group taking a high-dose green tea extract ("EGCG") daily for 12 weeks. The published abstract of this 2015 study reports that, "Significant weight loss, from 76.8 ± 11.3 kg to 75.7 ± 11.5 kg (p = 0.025), was observed in the treatment group after 12 weeks of high-dose EGCG treatment." Which of the following inference procedures would be used to reach the quoted conclusion?
a. Z procedure for a proportion
b. Chi-square for two-way tables
c. Chi-square for goodness of fit
d. Two sample t procedure for two means
e. One sample or matched-pairs t procedure for a mean
f. ANOVA for several means
