“A researcher wants to examine the effects of siblings on the amount of annual salary people earned when they are 35 years old. Salary data of three groups of 35-year olds were collected and are presented here. 4 participants with no sibling while growing up (n1 = 4): 50K, 51K, 49K, 50K. 5 participants with 1 to 2 siblings while growing up (n2 = 5): 55K, 56K, 54K, 58K, 52K. 4 participants with 3 and more siblings while growing up (n3 = 4): 60K, 60K, 70K, 50K. The researcher calculated: ∑x2 = 39747, G2/N = 39325, ∑T2/n = 39525.” Do the data indicate significant differences among the three groups of 35-year olds? Test at the alpha = .05 level. a. No, the calculated F value was not larger than the critical F value; results were not statistically significant and fail to reject the null hypothesis. b. Yes, the calculated F value was not larger than the critical F value; results were not statistically significant and fail to reject the null hypothesis. c. Yes,…
The following data show the pattern of results that was obtained in a study by Liguori and Robinson (2001) examining how different levels of alcohol and caffeine consumption influenced response time in a simulated driving test. The means show the average response time in milliseconds for different combinations of alcohol and caffeine. Remember larger reaction time means someone is slower to respond. For these data, indicate which are true/false There is an interaction, caffeine has a larger impact on reaction times (makes people respond faster) when participants haven’t had alcohol) A. True B. False
7) The following results are from data that were collected from a sample of Chicago Cubs baseball games. The dependent variable is ATTENDANCE, TEMP is a variable measuring the forecasted game-time temperature: WIN% is a variable measuring the winning percentage of the Cubs before the game is played, OPWIN% is a variable measuring the winning percentage of their opponent, WEEKEND is a dummy variable = 1 if the game is played on a weekend and = 0 if the game is played during a weekday, PROMOTION is a dummy variable = 1 if there is a promotion for the game (giving away something to those who attend the game) and = 0 if there is not a promotion, and WEEK*PROM is an interaction term equal to WEEKEND*PROMOTION. a) What is the predicted attendance if TEMP = 70, WIN% = 500, OPWIN% = 500, the game is played on a weekend and there is NO promotion? b) What is the predicted attendance if TEMP = 70, WIN% = 500, OPWIN% = 500, the game is played on a weekend and there is a promotion? c) Based on…
A doctor is trying to decide if a patient has one of three diseases d1, d2, or d3. Two tests are to be carried out, each of which results in a positive (P) or a negative (N) outcome. There are four possible test patterns PP, PN, NP, and NN. National records have indicated that, for 10,000 people having one of these three diseases, the distribution of diseases, and test results are as shown below: Please find the image below What is the probability that a randomly selected patient has the 2nd disease d2? What is the probability that a randomly selected patient has a test result of NP? If a randomly selected patient gets a test result of NP, what is the probability that the patient has the third disease d3?
. . 3 2 0 _1 A study was conducted to determine if taking a popularly advertised herbal supplement will result in weight loss in obese males. A random sample of clinically obese males was obtained. Each subject was weighed before taking the supplement and again after 60 days using the supplement. Subjects were told not to alter their diet in any way during the study period. The following table shows the observed results for the six subjects. ] Subject Before (B) After (A) D=B-A 1 2 164 172 166 154 -2 18 What is the 95% confidence interval for this matched pair test?

You also conducted a review of the research literature and found that similar studies examining the relationship between alcohol consumption and liver cancer found the following: Smithson et al.

Reggie is running his stats for a project he just finished. He had participants came in to the lab and gave them a drug treatment (either a control or an experimental compound) at different times during the day (morning, afternoon, and night). Each participant went through all off of the conditions. He ran an ANOVA and tested for the main effects and their interaction. Assuming that only the main effects (and not the interaction) came back significant, interpret his results (no need to include tests statistics).
The owner of a chain of mini-markets wants to compare the sales performance of two of her stores, Store 1 and Store 2. Sales can vary considerably depending on the day of the week and the season of the year, so she decides to eliminate such effects by making sure to record each store's sales on the same sample of days. After choosing a random sample of 10 days, she records the sales (in dollars) for each store on these days, as shown in Table 1. Day Store 1 Store 2 Difference(Store 1 - Store 2) 1 760 791 -31 2 856 571 285 3 516 443 73 4 768 646 122 5 375 427 -52 6 312 210 102 7 231 15 216 8 779 602 177 9 633 297 336 10 690 601 89 Table 1 Based on these data, can the owner conclude, at the 0.10 level of significance, that the mean daily sales of the two stores differ? Answer this question by performing a hypothesis test regarding μd (which is μ with a letter "d" subscript), the population mean daily sales difference between the two stores. Assume…
