3. Gender-orientation of smells. Some smells are perceived as being more feminine or more masculine. Researchers asked a random sample of 300 American adults to score quantitatively the perceived gender-orientation of lavender. Smaller scores indicate a more feminine scent and larger scores a more masculine scent. In this design, a gender-neutral scent would have a perceived gender- orientation score of 12. The participants gave the scent of lavender an average score of l0.28. а. Is this evidence that the scent of lavender is not gender neutral, on average? State HO and Ha in the corresponding test, indicating what the parameter in your hypotheses is. b. The researchers report that “p<0.01 (2-tail)" for this test. Explain the meaning of “p<0.01" and “2-tail." C. Assuming that the conditions for inference were met, conclude in the context

Solid fats are more likely to raise blood cholesterol levels than liquid fats. Suppose a nutritionist analyzed the percentage of saturated fat for a sample of 6 brands of stick margarine (solid fat) and for a sample of 6 brands of liquid margarine and obtained the following results: Stick = [25.4,25.3,25.7,25.6,26.7,25.8] Liquid= [16.9,16.7,17.5,17.2,17.3,16.6] We want to determine if there a significant difference in the average amount of saturated fat in solid and liquid fats. What is the test statistic? (assume the population data is normally distributed) a) t = 34.743 b) t = 34.243 c) z = 34.743 d) z = 34.243 e) t = 23.065
A researcher finds a strong positive correlation between stress and health problems. In other words, the amount of stress you have and the amount of health problems you have move together in the same direction. From this finding, what can the researcher conclude? A) Impossible to tell causation from a correlation B) Stress and health problems are both due to a poor financial situation C) Stress causes health problems D) Health problems cause stress
Nota, Ferrari, Soresi, and Wehmeyer (2007) measured the relationship between IQ and the four measures of self-determination in a sample of n = 141 participants. They reported a negative correlation between IQ and self-determination in daily activities, r = -0.42, p < .01, and a negative correlation between IQ and self-determination in expressing emotions and options, r = -0.16, p > .05. a. Which correlation is significant? b. Which is the stronger correlation?
A group of statisticians decides they will answer the question: Has the wolf reintroduction to Yellowstone been detrimental to elk herds in the park? They decide that each of the four data scientists will take a quadrant of the park to collect a sample from as randomly as possible. They decide they will collect the sample during the winter, the time the elk herds are most stressed. They agree to trust each others professional judgement when it comes to the health of the individual elk in the herd. They will give each elk a grade out of 3pts: 1 pt for sick, 2pts for fair, and 3pts for healthy. They then share their data and compare to create a final report on the overall health of the elk in the park. In this scenario, what is the same for all samples (the control)?

An automobile dealer conducted a test to determine if the time in minutes needed to complete a minor engine tune-up depends on whether a computerized engine analyzer or an electronic analyzer is used. Because tune-up time varies among compact, intermediate, and full-sized cars, the three types of cars were used as blocks in the experiment. The data obtained follow. Analyzer Computerized Electronic Car Compact 51 42 Intermediate 55 43 Full-sized 62 47 Use ? = 0.05 to test for any significant differences. State the null and alternative hypotheses.

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?

Businesses know that customers often respond to background music. Do they also respond to odors? One study of this question took place in a small pizza restaurant in France on two Saturday evenings in May. On one of these evenings, a relaxing lavender odor was spread through the restaurant. On the other evening no scent was used. The data gives the time, in minutes, that two samples of 30 customers spent in the restaurant and the amount they spent in euros. No odor Lavender Minutes Euros spent Minutes Euros spent 103103 15.915.9 9292 21.921.9 6868 18.518.5 126126 18.518.5 7979 15.915.9 114114 22.322.3 106106 18.518.5 106106 21.921.9 7272 18.518.5 8989 18.518.5 121121 21.921.9 137137 24.924.9 9292 15.915.9 9393 18.518.5 8484 15.915.9 7676 22.522.5 7272 15.915.9 9898 21.521.5 9292 15.915.9 108108 21.921.9 8585 15.915.9 124124 21.521.5 6969 18.518.5 105105 18.518.5 7373 18.518.5 129129 25.525.5 8787 18.518.5 103103 18.518.5 109109 20.520.5 107107…
