**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.

Job Satisfaction. A study reported in the Journal of Small Business Management concluded that selfemployed individuals do not experience higher job satisfaction than individuals who are not selfemployed. In this study, job satisfaction is measured using 18 items, each of which is rated using a Likerttype scale with 1–5 response options ranging from strong agreement to strong disagreement. A higher score on this scale indicates a higher degree of job satisfaction. The sum of the ratings for the 18 items, ranging from 18 to 90, is used as the measure of job satisfaction. Suppose that this approach was used to measure the job satisfaction for lawyers, physical therapists, cabinetmakers, and systems analysts. The results obtained for a sample of 10 individuals from each profession follow. SatisJob Lawyer Physical Therapist Cabinetmaker Systems Analyst 44 55 54 44 42…

Do people feel hungrier after sampling a healthy snack? Researchers randomly assign volunteers into one of three groups. The people in the first group were asked to taste a snack that was billed as a new health bar containing high levels of protein, vitamins, and fiber. The people in the second group were asked to taste the same snack but there told it was a tasty chocolate bar with a raspberry center. After tasting the snack, participants were asked to rate their hunger on a scale from 1 (not at all hungy) to 7 (very hungry). The people in the third group were asked to rate their hunger but were not given a snack. Healthy Tasty No Snack 8 3 3 7 1 3 7 3 5 4 2 6 5 6 5 a. Perform a complete one-way ANOVA hypothesis test.

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).
An educational psychologist is interested in whether using a child’s own name in a story affected attention span while reading. Six children were randomly assigned to read a story under ordinary conditions (using common and generic names). Five other children read versions of the same story, but with each child’s ownname substituted for one of the children in the story. The researcher measured the amount of time (in minutes) each child spent reading the story. The results are shown in the following table. Does including the child’s namemake any difference in attention span? Test the hypothesis at an alpha set to .05, following these steps: a) write the null and alternative hypotheses; b) determine the critical value(s); c) draw the comparison distribution with rejection region(s) shaded; d)use the correct formula to compute the test statistic; e) state the statistical decision; f) state a brief conclusion.
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.
