A research team is investigating the claim that a new sports performance beverage (GatorX) will increase the total time running during match play to at or above 70% of playing time (walking <30% of the time). Based on internal research, the performance company claims that the supplement improves running and sprinting times above the 70% threshold 75% of the time. In this case, on a team of 17 players, that would equate to 13 out of 17 players. Because of the larger variability in experimental nutrition interventions, the probability of not obtaining the ‘expected’ results (or p-value) is .10 or 90%. Calculate, a Chi-square test statistic, p-value, and critical value Based on the following outcomes, does the nutritional claim hold weight? Is the null hypothesis that states there will not be a performance effect true or not true? What are some of the limitations with this study?
