A child psychologist is investigating if the attention span of 10-year old children is greater than 25 minutes. The psychologist selects a random sample of 64 ten-year old’s and measures their attention span. The result is a mean of ? = 25.65 Test the claim that the mean attention span of 10-year old children is greater than 25 minutes with a 5% significance level if the population standard deviation is assumed to be ? = 2.5 minutes. State the null and the alternative hypothesis. Use the guidelines established in class. Draw and fully label the rejection regions. Calculate the test statistic. Determine the p-value. Illustrate the p-value in the diagram in part b. State the answer to four decimal places. Give the decision about the null hypothesis. Reject Ho Fail to Reject Ho Interpret the results in terms of the alternative hypothesis. Use the guidelines established in class.
I only need the p-value and the interpretation please and thank you!
