A physical therapist wanted to know whether the mean step pulse of men was less than the mean step pulse of women. She randomly selected 52 men and 73 women to participate in the study. Each subject was required to step up and down a 6-inch platform. The pulse of each subject was then recorded. The following results were obtained. (a) State the nul and altemative hypotheses. Which of the fallowing is correct? (b) Identify the P-value and state the researcher's conclusion if the level of significance was a=0.02. What is the P-value? P.value =

Body Mass Index is a measure of body shape. Duran et al. (2013) investigated BMI in Texas youth. In part of the study, they took BMI measurements on samples of 14 year old boys and girls in Texas (94 boys and 98 girls). Suppose they were interested in investigating a possible difference in body mass index between boys and girls at that age. Assume for the purposes of this question that the samples can be thought of as independent simple random samples from 14 year old Texans, and that all other assumptions of the Welch t procedure are met. Welch Two Sample t-test data: BMI by gender = 0.1038 t = -1.6348, df = 189.5, p-value alternative hypothesis: true difference in means is not equal to 0 95 percent confidence interval: -2.9517451 0.2764086 sample estimates: mean in group Boy mean in group Girl 23.30213 24.63980 Give an appropriate interpretation of the confidence interval found in the output. Your interpretation must relate to the problem at hand.
A researcher is interested in learning more about the protective effects of exercise. He conducts a study where he collects information about stress levels (measured on a multi-item Likert scale) and hours of exercise completed in a week (1,2,3,4,etc.,etc.). What type of statistical test should be used?
The claim is that for a smartphone carrier's data speeds at airports, the mean is μ=18.00 Mbps. The sample size is n=24 and the test statistic is t=2.219. What is the P-value?
Can you help me solve this question. I am unable to access the other two questions because you have to include an answer first.
Social functioning is the ability for an individual to interact or adapt in a normal or usual way in social environments. Albert et al. (2007) asked if relatives of patients with OCD are as healthy as those in general healthy populations. They measured the social functioning of relatives using a 36-item survey with scores ranging from 0 (worst possible health) to 100 (best possible health). The mean score for the general healthy population was 77.43. Using the sample data, test whether there was a difference. Scores: 20, 60, 48, 92, 50, 82, 48, 90, 30, 68, 43, 54, 60, 62, 94, 67, 63, 85 State hypotheses 2. Set the criteria using α= 0.05 3. Calculate t 4. What should you conclude?
A group of health conscious researchers were interested in ways to lower blood pressure. The study consisted of 90 participants. 30 participants were randomly assigned to eat a heart healthy diet, 30 were randomly assigned to a heart healthy exercise routine, and 30 were randomly assigned to do nothing and serve as a control. After a month of their assigned intervention, participants' blood pressure was measured. Which statistical test should be used to compare the 3 intervention types on post-treatment blood pressure? Select one: a. One-way between subjects ANOVA b. One-way repeated measures ANOVA Incorrect c. Two-way between subjects ANOVA d. None of these options
Evans conducted a study to determine if the frequency and characteristics of pediatric problems in elderly patients with diabetes present differences with respect to patients of the same age, but without diabetes. The individuals studied, interned in a clinic, were between 70 and 90 years old. Among the researchers' findings are the following statistics. with respect to the scores on the deep tendon reflexes meters:Sample without Diabetes: 79 / 2.1 / 1.1With Diabetes: 74 / 1.6 / 1.2Is it possible to conclude, based on the data, that, on average, diabetic patients they have reduced deep tendon reflexes in comparison with patients without diabetes of the same age?
A nutrition store in the mall is selling "Memory Booster," which is a concoction of herbs and minerals that is intended to improve memory performance. To test the effectiveness of the herbal mix, a researcher obtains a sample of n = 16 people and asks each person to take the suggested dosage each day for four weeks. At the end of the four-week period, each individual takes a standardized memory test. The scores from the sample produce a mean of M = 24 with SS = 960. In the general population, the standardized test is known to have a mean of m = 20. Do the sample data support the conclusion that the Memory Booster has a significant effect? Use a two-tailed test with a = .05. Include the null hypothesis in symbols, critical region(s), and a conclusion about significance
From the table on the image: Construct an appropriate hypothesis test to determine whether or not there is an association between experiencing phenomena such as seeing a ghost and the age group you are in. Write the appropriate null/alternative hypothesis and carry out the test. Use a significance level of α = 0.01.

A study was performed to determine the percentage of people who wear life vests while out on the water. A researcher believed that the percentage was different for those who rode jet skis compared to those who were in boats. Out of 500500 randomly selected people who rode a jet ski, 85%85% wore life vests. Out of 250250 randomly selected boaters, 90.4%90.4% wore life vests. Using a 0.050.05 level of significance, test the claim that the proportion of people who wear life vests while riding a jet ski is not the same as the proportion of people who wear life vests while riding in a boat. Let jet skiers be Population 1 and let boaters be Population 2. Step 1 of 3 : State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test. Fill in the blank below.

Use the following information to answer the question. Researchers want to test whether the color of a vehicle ticketed for speeding has an effect on the amount of the ticket. Four vehicle colors were used for the study--red, white, black, and silver. Thirty vehicles were randomly assigned to each group. Use the output below to answer the question. Choose the correct conclusion for the hypothesis that vehicle color affects the amount of a speeding ticket. Assume all ANOVA test conditions have been satisfied. a) Reject H0. The vehicle color has no effect on the amount of the speeding ticket. b) Fail to reject H0. The vehicle color has no effect on the amount of the speeding ticket. c) Reject H0. The vehicle color has an effect on the amount of the speeding ticket. d) Fail to reject H0. The vehicle color has an effect on the amount of the speeding ticket.
