1.In an experiment examining human memory, two groups of participants are used. One group is allowed 5 minutes to study a list of 40 words and the second group is given 10 minutes of study time for the same list of words. Then, both groups are given a memory test, and the researcher records the number of words correctly recalled by each participant. For this scenario descript the experiment design, identify the following: a. The test units and sampling procedures (3) b. Independent variable(s) (1) c. Dependent variable (s) (1) d. Control group (1) e. Treatment group (1) f. how to control the extraneous variables. (3)

You wish to determine the impact expressive writing has on days spent in the hospital for elderly adults. However, it is difficult to estimate the population average of days spent in the hospital. Thus, we recruit 14 elderly adults and randomly assigned half to either write expressively about their most traumatic life event or to write about their plans for that day- both groups write 20-minute essays four days in a row and six months later are asked how many days they have spent in the hospital. Expressive writing condition: 2, 5, 1, 4, 4, 2, 3 Control condition: 8, 8, 5, 2, 7, 5, 7 Which statistical test would you select: Ho: H₁: Enter the data above into and JAMOVI and use the correct statistical procedure to test the null hypothesis - answer the following questions: What is the mean difference between the two samples? What is the standard error of the mean? What is the appropriate 95% CI? [ What is the d-effect size? What is the t-observed? } Based on the p-value (a = .05) should…
Three different milling machines were being considered for purchase by a clothing manufacturing company. The company would be purchasing hundreds of these machines. To make sure it made the best decision, the company borrowed five of each machines and were assigned to 15 technicians. Each machine was put through a series of tasks and was rated using a standardized test. The following results were obtained: Machine 1 Machine 2 Machine 3 24.5 28.4 26.1 23.5 34.2 28.3 26.4 29.5 24.3 27.1 32.2 26.2 29.9 30.1 23.8 Perform the test at 1% level of significance. Identify the test statistic to be used. O A. F-test O B. Chi-square Test O C. z-Test O D. t-Test
A coffee company wants to determine how long caffeine lasts throughout the day when individuals have a cup of one of their 3 types of coffee at 9am. They will then measure the levels of caffeine in these individuals’ systems at 10am, 12am, 2pm, 4pm, 6pm and 8pm. They want to have at least 20 observations per group. How many separate/distinct groups of participants are needed if they want to conduct this experiment using a mixed-measures ANOVA? options: a. Not enough information to determine b. 18 c. 6 d. 20 e. 3
A substance abuse counselor wants to demonstrate the effect of situational stress on alcohol cravings. He recruits two groups of men who are similar in respect to history of alcohol use and demographic variables. He divides them in to two groups. In one group(n=11), the men are exposed to a stressful situation and then asked to complete a measure rating their alcohol cravings on a scale from 0-10, where 0 representsno cravings and 10 represents intense cravings. In the second group (n=10), the men are exposed to a neutral situation and asked to complete the same measure. What test and graph should I create to find out if a stressful situation result in more intense alcohol cravings than a non-stressful situation?

This is a SAS question. You want to randomly assign 48 subjects into two groups (Placebo and Drug). Write a DATA step to do this in such a way as to ensure there are exactly 24 subjects in each group. Can you think of how to do this so that in each group of eight subjects, there are exactly four Placebo and four Drug assignments? (Hint: Create six blocks of eight subjects each.) I know how to do the first part, it is the second part that is hard for me to figure out. Thank you!
The Consumer Reports Restaurant Customer Satisfaction Survey is based upon 148,599 visits to full-service restaurant chains.t One of the variables in the study is meal price, the average amount paid per person for dinner and drinks, minus the tip. Suppose a reporter for the Sun Coast times thought that it would be of interest to her readers to conduct a similar study for restaurants located on the Grand Strand section in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The reporter selected a sample of 8 seafood restaurants, 8 Italian restaurants, and 8 steakhouses. The following data show the meal prices ($) obtained for the 24 restaurants sampled.

I. In the following study educational researchers were interested in whether a New Method for teaching mathematics was more effective than the Standard Method. A sample of 20 students were taught by the Standard Method, while another sample of 15 students were taught by the New Method. Each student was given a mathematics proficiency test at the end of the teaching period. The scores on this test are tabulated below: Standard 54.2 61.9 69.2 76.1 55.8 67.3 73.9 67.3 73.9 71.4 Method New Method 76.4 69.6 66.0 81.1 66.6 77.2 89.9 85.4 66.3 67.9 77.5 70.3 63.2 33.4 55.6 42.0 13.8 10.7 36.9 71.6 37.9 23.7 14.5 26.6 55.2 Some Summary Statistics are given below: Er Ex?

5. Use the data set 1. This is the result of a randomized trial in Uganda where 10 students in the same village were selected and given a solar-powered reading lamp. The second group was not given any lamp. The number of students out of 10 who improved their school grades for both groups were recorded. The experiment was repeated in 50 villages. Test the hypothesis that solar-powered reading lamps are effective in improving school grades in Uganda.
