A history teacher, who is concerned about how long his students spend writing papers for his class, asks all of his students how long (in minutes) they spent on a recent essay. He then performs a linear regression analysis, with writing time as the explanatory variable and essay score (out of 100 points) as the response variable. He is careful to make sure that the residual plot for his data shows a random scatter of points and that there is no evidence of changes in variance of essay score for different values of writing time. Nevertheless, his friend who teaches statistics tells him it would not be appropriate for him to test the null hypothesis that the slope of the regression line is 0. Why not? A) The variable “Essay score” is a discrete variable. B) He does not have evidence that the relationship between writing time and essay score is linear. C) He does not have evidence that the variable “writing time” is Normal ly distributed. D) There are too many lurking variables, such as student ability and motivation, which would surely bias the study.
