A researcher is interested in investigating the relationship between sugar consumption and weight gain for high school students. 15 volunteers were randomly assigned to one of two groups. The first group contained 6 volunteers who were put on a low sugar diet. The second group consisting of the remaining 9 volunteers was put on a diet with sugar constituting approximately 15% of their diet. After 8 weeks, the change in weight was recorded for each of the volunteers. Question: What is the response variable? What study principle was used in this study and what kind of study is this?
An epidemiologist wants to evaluate the most effective method to teach the public about preventative health. They compare the following 3 treatments; posters with information about healthy habits, social media posts about healthy habits, and TV commercials suggesting healthy habits. Which of the following tests is appropriate for this study? a. Independent Measures t-test (between subjects) b. ANOVA c. Two-Factor ANOVA d. Repeated Measure t-test (within-subjects)
. Do patients with gastrointestinal issues experience more psychological distress than the general population? The DASS-21 questionnaire is a validated measure of depression, anxiety, and stress. For the general population, the mean for anxiety is µ = 4.2. Anxiety levels are calculated based on self-reported answers to questions on a scale from 0 through 42, with lower scores indicating lower anxiety. Participants with gastrointestinal issues (specifically inflammatory bowel disease, IBD) completed the DASS-21. Use the data presented below to determine whether having gastrointestinal issues like IBD significantly increases risk for anxiety. Test whether or not the performance of this sample is significantly higher than the normal population using the proper t-test. Here are the data: Anxiety scores: 12, 15, 10, 8, 10, 5, 10, 13, 4, 6 ANALYSES AND UNGRADED OPTIONAL GUIDING QUESTIONS: 1a. Identify the Indep.Variable:__ Dep.Variable:__ Is it the Hypothesis…

A psychologist would like to examine the effects of a new drug on the activity level of animals. Three samples of rats are selected with n=5 in each sample. One group gets no drug, one group gets s small dose, and the third group gets a large dose. The psychologist records the activity level for each animal. The data from this experiment are presented below. No drug Small dose Large dose 5, 3 , 1 , 1 , 5 5, 5, 9, 6, 5 10, 12, 9, 6, 8 =3, SS=16 =6, SS=12 =9, SS=20 Do these data indicate any significant differences among the three groups? Test with α=0.05. Compute the effect size and interpret the result.
. A developmental psychologist would like to determine how much fine motor skill improves for children from age 3 to age 4. He takes a random sample of 9 three-year old children and gives each a manual dexterity test that measures fine motor skill. He tests these same children a year later, when they are each four-years old. Higher scores on this test indicate better fine motor skills. Scores are recorded in the table below. Is there a significant difference in the motor skills from age three to four? Test with an α = 0.05. What type of error is possible based on the outcome? What is the mean motor skill score for the children at age three? What is the mean motor skill score for the children at age four? Explain the advantage of using a dependent measures design over the independent measures design. What are some disadvantages?
Below you will find a research scenarios. Your task is to identify the proposed analysis and why you chose that analysis for each of these scenarios. State the research question that aligns with the scenario and the analysis. Next run the appropriate analyses and report your findings in APA Research scenario 2: Historians are interested in the accuracy of eyewitness accounts of traumatic events. One study examined survivors' recall of the sinking of the ship Titanic (Riniolo, Koledin, Drakulic, & Payne, 2003). The researchers reviewed the transcripts of survivors' testimony at governmental hearings (www.titanicinquiry.org) to see whether they testified that the ship was intact or breaking apart during the ship's final plunge (it was in fact breaking apart). To test for eyewitness accuracy, testimony of 20 survivors was examined to see if there was an equal likelihood of survivors saying the ship was intact or breaking apart.
