- The table below summarizes baseline characteristics of patients participating in a clinical trial. a) Are there any statistically significant differences in baseline characteristics between treatment groups? Justify your answer. Characteristic Placebo (n = 125) Experimental ( n =125) P Mean (+ Sd.

For his study, he selects a random sample of 36 adults. The subjects complete a series of working memory tests before and after walking in an urban setting. Before the walk, the mean score on the test of working memory was 9.1. After the walk, the mean score was 1.4 higher. The graduate student has no presupposed assumptions about how viewing different types of scenes affects working memory, so he formulates the null and alternative hypotheses as: H00 : μDD = 0 H11 : μDD ≠ 0 Assume that the data satisfy all of the required assumptions for a repeated-measures t test. The graduate student calculates the following statistics for his hypothesis test: Mean difference (MDD) 1.4 Estimated population standard deviation of the differences (s) 1.6 Estimated standard error of the mean differences (sMDMD) 0.2667 Degrees of freedom (df) 35 The t statistic 5.25 The critical values of t…Does more education lower a person’s level of prejudice? The number of years of education and the score on a prejudice test for ten people is given in the following table. Higher scores on the test indicate more prejudice. Years of Education 12 15 14 13 18 10 16 12 10 4 Score on Prejudice Test 1 6 2 3 2 4 1 5 5 10 Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if there is a significant linear correlation between the two variables. What is the decision for this hypothesis test? Reject the null because the absolute value of the test statistic is greater than the critical value and the p-value is less than alpha. Fail to reject the null because the absolute value of the test statistic is less than the critical value and the p-value is greater than alpha. Reject the null because the absolute value of the test statistic is less than the critical value and the p-value is less than alpha.

- You’re interested in knowing if a walking plus strength training exercise program results in a significantly greater increase in maxVo2 as compared to a walking only or a strength training only exercise program. Participants are randomly selected and then randomly assigned to one of three groups— walking plus strength training, walking only, or strength training only. After 6-months of exercise the participants are assessed. Which statistical analyses was used?The Management Department recently purchased a smallcopier for faculty use. Although the workload of the office staff has improved somewhat, the secretaries are still mak-ing too many trips to the Dean’s office when the depart-mental copier is out of service. Sylvia, the departmental secretary, has been keeping track of failure rates and ser-vice times. With a mean time between failures of 100 hours and a mean time to repair of 24 hours, how much of thetime is the new copier available for faculty use?A veterinarian wants to perform a study at a local animal shelter where 200 dogs need training on behavior modification. The purpose of the study would be to determine if using a firm voice during training for 10 minutes improves a dog's learning behavior compared to not speaking during training for 10 minutes. Part A: Describe an appropriate design for the study. Part B: The hypotheses for this study are as follows: Ho: There is no difference in the mean improvement of dogs during behavior modification for either treatment. Ha: The mean improvement of dogs during behavior modification is greater for the firm voice treatment. The shelters will allow trainers to use a firm voice during training if the null hypothesis is rejected. What are the possible Type I and II errors? Describe the consequences of each in the context of this study and discuss which type you think is more serious.n

- A research firm regularly conducts customer satisfaction surveys for an amusement park. A survey of 200 randomly selected park visitors on a weekday in May concluded the average age of visitors to the park was 39 years. When the survey was repeated with 200 randomly selected park visitors on a Saturday in May, the average age of visitors to the park was determined to be 17 years. Does the information represents a quantitative or qualitative variable? What is the age of the visitor? Does the visitor have a season pass?How would you explain question a in detail?
