A sensory Psychologist wants to test if age affects a person's ability to detect changes in color presented on a computer screen. She recruits 3 different age groups (young, mid aged, elderly) to test. She also wants to know if bilingual people are different in their ability to detect color changes relative to non bilingual people, so half of the 60 participants are bilingual, the other not bilingual. Complete the source table below for her results.

Jeff Friedman was a section chief for an electric utility company. After the numbers in one of his reports to the management of the utility didn't add up, he was reassigned to the home economics department. He interviewed 119 people in a suburban shopping center to discover some of their cooking habits. He obtained the results shown to the right. 53 use microwave ovens; 63 use electric ranges; 52 use gas ranges; 23 use microwave ovens and electric ranges; 20 use microwave ovens and gas ranges; 8 use both gas and electric ranges; 2 use all three; 4 uses none of the three. Should he be reassigned one more time? Why or why not? Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice. A. Yes, he should be reassigned. He says that he interviewed 119 people, but the numbers in his report indicate that he actually interviewed some error, he should be reassigned. people. Since he made B.

In a class of 100 graduating students, 54 studied Physics, 69 studied Biology and 35 studied both Physics and Biology. Based on above information, make a venn diagram. Based on above information, create a table to distinguish above data.
Researchers investigated two kinds of laugh tracks – one with posed laughter and one with spontaneous laughter. Recall that to create the posed laughter laugh track, the researchers asked people to laugh and recorded the results. The researchers also tested the same 40 jokes with a spontaneous laughing laugh track, which they created by having people watch funny videos and recording their laughter. The data can be found in the file LaughTypes in pictures. Put these data into the Matched Pairs applet to investigate whether the type of laughter makes a difference in the ratings of the jokes and also do parts (a) (b) and (c):
A study is conducted to determine the effect of walnuts on concentration. Subjects were given 1 tablespoon of walnuts and asked to perform a memory test. Scores for the test were recorded in Excel. What is tool in this scenario?
Suppose the doctors at a local office take a health survey of 100 adult female patients with similar weight who have had appointments in the last week. According to their medical file, the 100 participants all weigh between 140 – 149 lbs. One of the survey questions asks participants to list their current weight. The accompanying tables show the relative frequency of weights measured by the physician for the 100 participants and the relative frequency of weights recorded in the survey for the 100 participants. Note that some of the weights reported in the survey did not fall between 140 – 149 lbs.

You want to study whether music affects people’s ability to learn. You get a sample of college students. First, you have them study a list of words with soft classical music playing, then you test how many words they correctly remember. Second, you have them study a list of words with loud heavy metal playing, then you test how many words they correctly remember. You want to compare their learning/memory with the classical music to their learning/memory with the loud heavy metal music. What kind of hypothesis test should you do?

Imagine I wanted to study the effectiveness of the Mediterranean diet on people’s memory. I tested a group of people who strictly followed the Mediterranean diet, another group who followed a typical Western diet, and another whose diet I did not change at all. Before the diet changes began, I gave all my participants a memory test. After six weeks of the diet experiment, I had all participants complete the same memory test again to see how scores would change among the three groups. For this study, identify a parameter and a statistic I might be interested in.

A consumer group wanted to determine if there was a difference in customer perceptions about prices for a specific type of toy depending on where the toy was purchased. In the local area there are three main retailers: W-Mart, Tag, and URToy. For each retailer, the consumer group randomly selected 5 customers, and asked them to rate how expensive they thought the toy was on a 1-to-10 scale (1= not expensive, to 10 = very expensive). The toy was priced the same at all retail stores. Compute the percentage of variance explained by the group differences for these data. Q: Percentage and variance explained = ?
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
For this same class, the relationship between the amount of time spent studying and the amount of time spent socializing per week was also examined. It was determined that the more hours they spent studying, the fewer hours they spent socializing. Is this a positive or negative association?
Ms. Fit investigates whether children exhibit a higher number of prosocial acts after watching a 30-minute cartoon containing multiple prosocial acts in comparison to watching a 30-minute educational cartoon. Before watching the cartoon, children were matched on empathy (as rated by one of their parents) and then one of each pair was assigned to either the prosocial cartoon or the educational cartoon. The number of prosocial acts for the children was analyzed and resulted in the output below. Write a directional alternative hypothesis. Identify the IV, its levels, and its scale of measurement. Identify the DV and its scale of measurement. Identify one limitation in the design of this specific study (not just this type of design). Explain why it is a limitation and suggest how a future study could avoid it. What specific procedures should the research have followed to ensure that the study is ethical? Explain your answer.
