A hearing specialist conducts a study on hearing loss at certain frequencies among a group of patients in a retirement community. Of 94 residents tested, 10 had significant hearing loss at low frequencies but not high, 40 had a significant loss at high frequencies but not low, and 26 showed no significant hearing loss at all

In a recent study on American sleep habits, 1300 adults were asked questions about their sleep cycles. The study found that 39 % say they get sleepy on the job and their work suffers at least a few days each month. An additional 21 % said the problems occur a few days each week and 9 % say sleepiness on the job is a daily occurrence. For the remaining respondents, sleepiness was not a problem at all. Summarize the given information by filling out the frequency and relative frequency distribution table. Sleepy At Work? Frequency Relative Frequency Not at all A few days each month A few days each week Daily
A study in Boston schools questioned third graders to see if they felt stress in their school life. Out of 37 boys, 18 said they felt stress. While 16 out of 54 girls said they felt stress. Is this enough evidence to show that the boys and girls experience stress differently?

Suppose we want to compare the GPA for students in at least three different social classes (Upper, Middle, Working). We obtain GPA records for a randomly selected set of 30 students, ten from each social class group. What test should you use and why?
A report describes a survey of 251 adult Americans. Participants in the survey were asked how often they disinfect their phone and were asked to respond with one of the following categories: more than once a week, once a week, every other, week, every three weeks, or less often than every three weeks. For this group, 9% responded more than once a week, 52% responded once a week, 26% responded every other week, 6% responded every three weeks, and 7% responded less often than every three weeks. Fill in the table below with the relative frequency distributions. How Often? Relative Frequency More than once a week Once a week Every other week Every three weeks Less often than every three weeks
This obstetrician also wanted to determine the impact that three experimental diets had on the birth weights of pregnant mothers. She was also interested if age had an impact on birth weights. She randomly selected 27 pregnant mothers in the first trimester of whom 9 were 20 to 29 years old, 9 were 30 to 39 years old, and 9 were 40 or older. For each age group, she randomly assigned the mothers to one of three diets. After delivery, she measured the birth weight (in grams) of the babies and obtained the data a) What is the blocking variable?
THE MANAGER OF A SERVICE STATION IS IN THE PROCESS OF ANALYZING THE NUMBER OF TIMES CAR OWNERS CHANGE THE OIL IN THEIR CARS. SHE BELIEVES THAT THE AVERAGE MOTORIST CHANGES HIS OR HER CAR'S OIL LESS FREQUENTLY THAN RECOMMENDED BY THE OWNER'S MANUAL (TWO TIMES PER YEAR). IN A PRELIMINARY SURVEY SHE ASKED 14 CAR OWNERS HOW MANY TIMES THEY CHANGED THEIR CARS' OIL IN THE LAST 12 MONTHS. THE RESULTS ARE 1, 1, 2, 0, 3, 3,0, 1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 3, AND 1. 2.1 Does this data provide sufficient evidence at the 10% significance level to indicate that the manager is correct? 2.2 Ho: H₁: Rejection region: Test statistic: Decision: Conclusion: What condition is required in order to analyze this data using a t-test?
A researcher wants to conduct an experiment to determine which environment is best suited for studying - a library, in one's own room, or outside. A total of 30 university students volunteer to participate in the experiment. The researcher believes that gender has an effect on the results. What are the treatments in the experiment?

A sleep researcher conducts an experiment to determine whether sleep loss affects the ability to maintain sustained attention. Fifteen individuals are randomly divided into the following three groups of five subjects each: group 1, which gets the normal amount of sleep (7–8 hours); group 2, which is sleep-deprived for 24 hours; and group 3, which is sleep-deprived for 48 hours. All three groups are tested on the same auditory vigilance task. Subjects are presented with half-second tones spaced at irregular intervals over a 1-hour duration. Occasionally, one of the tones is slightly shorter than the rest. The subject’s task is to detect the shorter tones. The following percentages of correct detections were observed: Normal Sleep Sleep-Deprived for 24 Hours Sleep-Deprived for 48 Hours 85 60 60 83 58 48 76 76 38 64 52 47 75 63 P Use an ANOVA with 5% significance level to determine whether there are any significant mean differences…
