Pedro was working on a report on Swiss and Austrian psychiatrists. He decided to find a 90 percent confidence interval for the difference in mean age at the time of significant psychiatric discoveries for Swiss versus Austrian psychiatrists. He found the ages at the time of psychological discovery of all the members of both groups and found the 90 percent confidence interval based on a t-distribution using a calculator. The procedure he used is not appropriate in this context because O The sample sizes for the two groups are not equal. O The entire population is measured in both cases, so the actual difference in means can be computed and a confidence interval should not be used. O Age at the time of psychological discovery occurs at different intervals in the two countries, so the distribution of ages cannot be the same. O Age at the time of psychological discovery is likely to be skewed rather than bell shaped, so the assumptions for using this confidence interval formula are not…

One scientist wondered if there was a difference in the average daily intake of dairy products between men and women. He took a sample of n1 = 50 adult men and n2 = 50 adult women and recorded their daily intake of dairy products in grams per day. A summary of the sample results is presented in the table. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference in the average daily intake of dairy products for men and women. Can it be concluded that there is a difference in the average daily intakes for men and women?
