100 UCI students were randomly sampled (N = 100) and asked to rate their enjoyment of statistics on a scale of 0 to 10 where 0 represents an absence of enjoyment. The average enjoyment of statistics for this sample of 100 UCI students is 8. The average enjoyment of statistics among college students in general is 5 with a standard deviation of 1.5. The distribution of college students’ enjoyment of statistics is normal. The university wants to know whether the population of UCI students enjoys statistics more than the population of college students in general. You are asked to answer this question by conducting a “one sample z-test” and working through the five steps of null hypothesis significance testing, labeling each step and showing all work. In Step 5, present the inferential statistics for this z-test along with a statistical and substantive interpretation of its results.
