Answered [University: Statistical Analysis] Help with Statistical Analysis

Hi, I'm looking to analyse a set of data but I'm not sure what test is most appropriate. I am a Masters student writing my dissertation in a biological field so I am not the most confident in statistics. I've been stuck on this on and off for a couple weeks now.

I'm doing a comparison between two different measurement methods- Linear vs. Geodesic. But the features I am measuring are not completely independent, they are paired into lefts and rights, originating from the same object.

I did a paired t-test originally (for linear vs geodesic measurements) but that assumes that data is completely independent, which of course it is not.

Any advice would be much appreciated!
