9. A researcher finds that for female applicants, the likelihood of being hired for a job increases as their work experience increases. However, for male applicants, the likelihood of being hired decreases as their work experience increases. This finding would suggestgender and work experience have no effect on likelihood of being hired for a job. a main effect of work experience (little or a lot). an interaction between gender and work experience. a main effect of gender (male or female).

29. A psychologist would like to examine the effects of different testing methods on the final performance of college students. One group gets regular quizzes, one group gets three large exams, and the third group only gets a final exam. At the end of the course, the psychologist interviews each student to get a measure of the student’s overall knowledge of the material. A) Do these data indicate any significant differences among the three methods? Test with α = .05. Show all steps B) What is eta-squared for this analysis
14. Identifying individuals with a high risk of Alzheimer's disease usually involves a long series of cognitive tests. However, researchers have developed a 7-Minute Screen, which is a quick and easy way to accomplish the same goal. The question is whether the 7-Minute Screen is as effective as the complete series of tests. To address this question, Ijuin et al. (2008) administered both tests to a group of patients and compared the results. The following data represent results similar to those obtained in the study. 18. 7-Minute Screen Cognitive Series Patient 3 11 8. 19 10 22 8. 20 4. 14 13 4 9. 20 14 25 a.

Are couples that live together before they get married more likely to end up divorced within five years of marriage compared to couples that live apart before they get married? 217 of the 671 couples from the study who lived together before they got married were divorced within five years of marriage. 132 of the 421 couples from the study who lived apart before they got married were divorced within five years of marriage. What can be concluded at the = 0.10 level of significance? For this study, we should use The null and alternative hypotheses would be: The test statistic = (please show your answer to 3 decimal places.) The p-value = (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) The p-value is Based on this, we should the null hypothesis. Thus, the final conclusion is that ... The results are statistically insignificant at αα = 0.10, so there is statistically significant evidence to conclude that the divorce rate…

Suppose that I conduct a study to examine whether drinking kool-aid improves memory performance. I ask half my participants to drink a glass of kool-aid while the other half doesn't drink anything. Afterwards I have them learn and recall a list of words. My results show that participants who consume kool-aid are no better at recalling words than my control participants. What can I conclude about my p-level? A) it is less than 0.05 (p0.05) D) none of these are correct
8. A certain drug can be used to reduce the acid produced by the body and heal damage to the esophagus due to acid reflux. The manufacturer of the drug claims that more than 95% of patients taking the drug are healed within 8 weeks. In clinical trials, 216 of 225 patients suffering from acid reflux disease were healed after 8 weeks. Test the manufacturer's claim at the a = 0.1 level of significance.

An urban comminity would like to show that the incidence of breast cancer is higher in their area than in a nearby rural area. If it is found that 20 out of 200 adult women in the urban comminity have breast cancer and 20 of 300 adult women in the rural community have breast cancer, can we conclude at the 0.025 level of 1 significance that breast cancer is more prevalent in the urban comminity?
The accompanying summary quantities resulted from a study in which x was the number of photocopy machines serviced during a routine service call and y was the total service time (min). n = 17 (y - y)² = 22,218.08(y-y)² = 2615.58 (a) What proportion of observed variation in total service time can be explained by a linear probabilistic relationship between total service time and the number of machines serviced? (Give the answer to three decimal places.) (b) Calculate the value of the estimated standard deviation se. (Give the answer to three decimal places.) What is the number of degrees of freedom associated with this estimate?
Suppose that a health researcher is interested in determining whether the distance between the patient’s residence and source of care, and # of disability days significantly predict the number of visits at a local hospital.

The authors of the paper "Age and Violent Content Labels Make Video Games Forbidden Fruits for Youth"† carried out an experiment to determine if restrictive labels on video games actually increased the attractiveness of the game for young game players. Participants read a description of a new video game and were asked how much they wanted to play the game. The description also included an age rating. Some participants read the description with an age restrictive label of 7+, indicating that the game was not appropriate for children under the age of 7. Others read the same description, but with an age restrictive label of 12+, 16+, or 18+. The paper gave data for 12- to 13-year-old girls. Data consistent with summary values in the paper are shown below. 7+ label 12+ label 16+ label 18+ label 5 4 6 8 9 5 4 6 6 5 8 6 5 6 6 7 5 3 10 7 6 5 9 4 4 3 6 10 5 8 6 6 10 5 8 8 5 9 5 7 Do the data provide convincing evidence that the mean rating associated with the game…
