A dean at a local college believes that a last name goes a long way and decides to conduct a study. They believe that job applicants with easy to pronounce last names are just as likely to get called for an interview as applicants with difficult to pronounce last names. 599 job applications were sent out with last names that are easy to pronounce and 815 identical job applications were sent out with names that were difficult to pronounce. 469 of the "applicants" with easy to pronounce names were called for an interview while 650 of the "applicants" with difficult to pronounce names were called for an interview.

This question refers to a survey of a university's faculty members on affirmative action policies for the university. The survey was based on telephone interviews with a random sample of 1,001 faculty members conducted in December 1995. One of the questions asked was, "Do you favor or oppose using race, religion, sex, color, ethnicity, or national origin as a criterion for admission to the university?" Of the 704 male respondents, 45% said "Favor," and of the 297 female respondents, 72% said "Favor." (a) Find the conservative margin of error (in %) for the male respondents. (Round your answer to one decimal place.) % Use the conservative margin of error to compute an approximate 95% confidence interval for the percent who favored this policy at the time of the poll in the population of male faculty members.

2. A researcher wants to measure the job satisfaction levels of the employees of two fast food company located in Manila. The researcher has used a questionnaire consisting of ten questions related to job satisfaction levels of the employees. The researcher has used a rating scale from 1 to 4 where 1 is the lowest score and 4 is the highest score. So, a maximum score of 40 and a minimum score of 10 can be obtained. The researcher has randomly selected 15 employees from the first company and 17 employees from the second company. The scores obtained from these employees are given below: First Company: 32 40 31 33 32 30 30 32 31 32 34 32 38 32 28 Second Company: 25 28 23 27 24 26 27 22 25 26 34 25 23 22 29 27 24 Taking 5% as the alpha level, examine the significant difference in terms of job satisfaction level between the employees of the two companies.

A sample of 792 children treated for injuries sustained from motor vehicle accidents was obtained, and each child was classified according to (1) ethnic status (Hispanic or non-Hispanic) and (2) seat belt usage (worn or not worn) during the accident. The number of children in each category is given in the table below.

February 12, 2009 marked the 20oth anniversary of Charles Darwin's birth. To celebrate, Gallup, a national polling organization, surveyed 1,018 randomly selected American adults about their education level and their beliefs about the theory of evolution. In their sample, 325 of their respondents had some college education and 228 were college graduates. Among the 325 respondents with some college education, 133 said that they believed in the theory of evolution. Among the 228 respondents who were college graduates, 121 said that they believed in the theory of evolution. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of college graduates and individuals with some college who believe in the theory of evolution.

Assume that adults were randomly selected for a poll. They were asked if they "favor or oppose using federal tax dollars to fund medical research using stem cells obtained from human embryos." Of those polled, 487 were in favor, 404 were opposed, and 118 were unsure. A politician claims that people don't really understand the stem cell issue and their responses to such questions are random responses equivalent to a coin toss. Exclude the 118 subjects who said that they were unsure, and use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the proportion of subjects who respond in favor is equal to 0.5. What does the result suggest about the politician's claim? Identify the null and alternative hypotheses for this test. Choose the correct answer below. O A. Ho: p=0.5 H1:p>0.5 O B.

An art authenticator has a history of successfully identifying forgeries. Over her career, she has been asked to evaluate 74 actual forgeries and correctly identified 69 of them. Further, among all the authentic art she has looked at, she has never claimed any to be forgeries. An art dealer is considering purchasing a painting but is worried it is a fake. His experience in the field over the years indicates about 3% of the artwork he comes across is forged. a) If the dealer employs the services of the authenticator, and she indicates the painting is genuine, what is the chance it is actually a forgery? b) Without authentication, the dealer can sell the painting for $20,000. The price would increase to $25,000 if the painting were authenticated as genuine, but obviously it is worthless if it is deemed a forgery. The authenticator charges $2,000 for her services. Do you think it is worth it for the dealer to use the authenticator? Why or why not?

b) A certain pay television company wishes to estimate the proportion of its customers who would purchase a pay television program guide. To do this, the company manager decides to select a random sample of customers and note the number who would purchase a program guide. Suppose that experience in other areas suggests that about 13% of customers will purchase a program guide. How many customers should the company manager include in his sample if he wishes to estimate the true proportion who will purchase the program guide correct to within 5% (0.05) with a confidence level of 95%?
Management of a company that produces a medical device has carefully selected and screened 220 finished items (packaged, ready to ship). The team agrees that the sample contains 33 defective items, all for various visual defects on the package such as crooked labels, poor seal, errant marks on package, etc. The items are then given to an inspector for classification into “defective” and “non-defective” piles. The inspector ends up rejecting 9 non-defective items, and accepting 11 defective items. The inspector classifies the remaining items in the sample correctly. Find the following (answer as a probability, NOT a percentage. Use 3 decimal places. Notice that alpha = 9/187, Beta = 11/33, and p = 33/220.

Why is it important to ensure that research participants' names and other identifying information are not included in the notes and other researcher data? Select one. O Only certain studies need to keep participant information confidential. O Anonymity protects the research participant from being discriminated against in the event another agency/entity has access to the raw data. O It is not necessary for respondents to remain anonymous in research. O In double blind studies, the participant does not need to remain anonymous.
