2. The scores for 15 persons on the Stressful Life Events Inventory (SLEI) and the scores for 15 other persons on the Major Stressors Questionnaire (MSQ) are presented in the Assessment 3 Data Excel file in the Stress Scores tab. For both surveys, higher scores mean that the person has experienced more stressors recently, suggesting a greater risk for stress-related symptoms such as acute anxiety attacks. Open the Assessment 3 Data Excel file and look over the SLEI and MSQ raw scores and z-scores in the Stress Scores tab. A. Please take a look at Participant 8 and 23 raw scores and z-scores. Who is at the greatest risk for acute anxiety attacks, Participant 8 or 23? Please make sure to briefly explain your answer based on the z- scores. B. What is the probability that someone will score higher than 40 on the SLEI? Is this unusual? Why or why not? What is the probability that someone will score higher than 125 on the MSQ? Is this unusual? Why or why not? (Please make sure to look up…
1. The AAA travel agency would like to assess if the distribution of desired vacation place has changed from the model of 3 years ago. A random sample of 928 adults were polled by the polling company Ipsos during this past mid-May. One question asked was “Name the one place you would want to go for vacation if you had the time and the money.” The table displays the model for the distribution of desired vacation place 3 years ago and the observed results based on the recent poll. Use 5 % significance level a) state the type of test needed b) State the null and alternate hypothesis c) Test the hypothesis at the 5% signifigance level d) state the conclusion of the test in a full sentence using the context of the problem
1. The percentage of 12- to 17-year-olds who reported talking at least once in the past year with their parents about the dangers of drug, tobacco, or alcohol is 60% nationally. A state youth council believes this proportion is higher in their state, where there has been an intense media campaign about this issue. A survey of randomly chosen students from across the state shows 1032 of 1642 students reporting they are having these conversations with their parents. Is there evidence that the percent of students using drugs, tobacco or alcohol in this state is above the national rate?
13. Consider a town in which 90% of the taxis are blue and 10% are green. One night a taxi hits a pedestrian and speeds off. A witness says.that the taxi was green. The pedestrian sues the Green Cab Co. The court orders a test of the witness's nighttime color perception. The test reveals that the witness correctly identifies 70% of blue color samples and 80% of green color samples. If a juror were to employ the representativeness heuristic to estimate the probability that the cab is green, he would overestimate that probability by the amount (a) 9/10 (b) 33/70 (c) 4/7 (d) 8/35 (e) 10/21
14. Identifying individuals with a high risk of Alzheimer's disease usually involves a long series of cognitive tests. However, researchers have developed a 7-Minute Screen, which is a quick and easy way to accomplish the same goal. The question is whether the 7-Minute Screen is as effective as the complete series of tests. To address this question, Ijuin et al. (2008) administered both tests to a group of patients and compared the results. The following data represent results similar to those obtained in the study. 18. 7-Minute Screen Cognitive Series Patient 3 11 8. 19 10 22 8. 20 4. 14 13 4 9. 20 14 25 a. Compute the Pearson correlation to measure the degree of relationship between the two test scores. b. Is the correlation statistically significant? Use a two-tailed test with a = .01. c. What percentage of variance for the cognitive scores is predicted from the 7-Minute Screen scores? (Compute the value of r.) 15. For a two-tailed test with a = .05, use Table R 6 to ABCD EFGH
10. The National Institute of Mental Health published an article stating that in any one-year period, approximately 9.5 percent of American adults suffer from depression or a depressive illness. Suppose that in a survey of 100 people in a certain town, seven of them suffered from depression or a depressive illness. If you were conducting a hypothesis test to determine if the true proportion of people in that town suffering from depression or a depressive illness is lower than the percent in the general adult American population, what would the null and alternative hypotheses be? a. Ho: b. Ha
5. Researchers are investigating household-income level and whether the family owns their home or rents, in a particular city. They will consider the proportion of high-income households who own their home and the proportion of low-income households who own. They want to check whether the two categorical variables (income level and home-own-v.-rent) are related. Test at the 0.01 significance level.Table of number of households in each sub-category. Data Own Rent high-income 47 50 low-income 34 44 a) Identify the correct alternative hypothesis for this test. Household income level and home-ownership-v.-renting are independent. There is a relationship between household income level and home-ownership-v.-renting. There is no relationship between household income level and home-ownership-v.-renting. Household income level varies much more than home-ownership-v.-renting proportions. b) The χ2χ2test statistic value is: c) The P-value is: d) Based on this, we Reject H0H0 Do…

1. A health insurance company wants to see if customers are choosing plans according to their predictions. They offer four plans: PT (Pretty Terrible), TOK (Totally OK), MF (Maybe Fine), SP (Super Premium). The company expects 1/5 of customers to pick the first three plans and 2/5 of customers to pick the Super Premium plan. They take a sample of 25 customers to evaluate their prediction. (a) Write the expected counts for this sample in a table. (b) The sample turns out to have 3 customers choosing PT, 2 choosing TOK, 8 choosing MF, and 12 choosing SP. Run a x² test to identify if this sample is statistically significant at the 5% level. (c) Do you think that 5% is an appropriate level to use here?
