**Testing whether Story Spoilers Spoil Stories**A story spoiler gives away the ending early. Does having a story spoiled in this way diminish suspense and hurt enjoyment? A study investigated this question. For twelve different short stories, the study's authors created a second version in which a spoiler paragraph at the beginning discussed the story and revealed the outcome. Each version of the twelve stories was read by at least 30 people and rated on a 1 to 10 scale to create an overall rating for the story, with higher ratings indicating greater enjoyment of the story. The ratings are given in Table 1 and stored in StorySpoilers. Stories 1 to 4 were ironic twist stories, stories 5 to 8 were mysteries, and stories 9 to 12 were literary stories. Test to see if there is a difference in mean overall enjoyment rating based on whether or not there is a spoiler.**Table 1: Enjoyment ratings for stories with and without spoilers**| Story | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 ||----------------|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|| With spoiler | 4.7 | 5.1 | 7.9 | 7.0 | 7.1 | 7.2 | 4.8 | 5.2 | 4.6 | 6.7 || Original | 3.8 | 4.9 | 7.4 | 7.1 | 6.2 | 6.1 | 6.7 | 7.0 | 4.3 | 5.0 | 4.1 | 6.1 |Click [here](#) for the dataset associated with this question.¹Leavitt, J. and Christenfeld, N., "Story Spoilers Don’t Spoil Stories," *Psychological Science*, published OnlineFirst, August 12, 2011.

A researcher conducts an independent-measures study to examine how the brain chemical serotonin is related to aggression. One sample of rats serves as a control group and receives a placebo that does not affect normal levels of serotonin. A second sample of rats, low serotonin group, receives a drug that lowers brain levels of serotonin. Then, the researcher tests the animals by recording the number of aggressive responses each of the rats display. See the data below. Is there a significant difference between the control group and the low serotonin group regarding the number of aggressive responses? Control Low Serotonin n = 10 n = 15 M = 14 M = 19 SS = 180.5 SS = 130 Perform a hypothesis test using independent-measures t-test. Use a two-tailed…

A visiting comparative literature student from Cambridge University believes that contemporary readers prefer novels from George RR Martin (the author of the Games of Thrones saga) to Shakespeare. She devises a study in which 40 participants are asked to read excerpts from both Shakespeare plays and Games of Thrones books and rate their level of satisfaction for each excerpt. Satisfaction is measured using a 5-point Likert scale (5 indicates high satisfaction). In order to allow for a fair comparison, she hides the name of the authors and recruits a professional translator to adapt the Games of Thrones text to old Elizabethan English. The order of presentation is also randomised and balanced across participants. The attached CSV file contains the data that was collected for the experiment. What can you conclude from the results of this experiment? I require assistance on: Identifying the appropriate statistical test. Conducting the statistical test in JASP, Excel or SPSS. Reporting…
Researchers asked soda drinkers to view either the logo for their favorite soda or a graphic warning demonstrating the harmful effects of sugary beverages (e.g., tooth decay, obesity) and then measured their negative mood with a short survey. They found that those participants who saw the warnings reported significantly greater negative moods than those who saw the logos. Which statistical test should be used?
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. 1. What kind of statistical test should be used to test the consumer group's research goal, assuming that the researcher wanted to use the 1-to-10 scale as a numerical interval measure? A. Repeated-measures t-test B. One-way Independent Measures ANOVA C. Repeated-measures ANOVA D. Independent-measures t-test 2. State the hypothesis that aims to test the consumer group’s research goal (i.e., what is H0 and HA).

A psychologist would like to examine the effects of caffeine consumption on the activity level of preschool children. Three samples of children are selected with n = 5 in each sample. One group gets no caffeine, one group gets a small dose, and the third group gets a large dose. The psychologist records the activity level for each child during 50 minutes of unstructured play. Determine whether these data indicate significant differences among the three groups using a = .05. Your answer should include hypotheses, critical boundary, F-score, and results including notation, decision, and explanation. Calculate and interpret effect size if appropriate. Indicate whether post- hoc test results should be calculated (i.e., "yes, include" or "no, do not include"). No caffeine Small dose Large dose T= 15 T= 20 T= 25 G = 60 SS = 16 SS = 12 SS = 20 Ex2 = 298
Researchers studied a group of 30 “self-designated worriers” (i.e. individuals who reported spending at least 10% of the day worrying) and who were over the age of 70 (mean age of 78.1). The researcher randomly assigned the worriers into three groups. For the next four weeks, each group would experience a different approach to handling worry. One group engaged in a worry-focus discussion group. The second group members enjoyed individual therapy. The third group went for daily walks in the park. Data was collected, analyzed, and interpreted. Write a valid one sentence hypothesis statement using proper form of the above research design.
