A subject with an alpha=0.25 has an action-value for symbol A = 0.6 and symbol B = 0.75. The subject selects A and receives a reward of 1. a. Calculate the prediction error (delta) for this trial b. Calculate the new action-value for symbol A (use the Rescorla-Wagner equation) c. After this trial, which symbol is the subject more likely to select.

A random selection of volunteers at a research institute have been exposed to a typical cold virus. After they started to have cold symptoms, 10 of them were given multivitamin tablets formulated to fight cold symptoms. The remaining 10 volunteers were given placebo tablets. For each individual, the length of time taken to recover from the cold is recorded. At the end of the experiment the following data are obtained. Days to recover from a cold Treated with multivitamin 2.6, 5.9, 5.3, 5.8, 8.7, 6.2, 7.6, 6.4, 8.0, 4.0 Treated with placebo 3.0, 5.1, 4.7, 4.2, 4.7, 5.6, 5.9, 4.7, 7.1, 4.9 It is known that the population standard deviation of recovery time from a cold is 1.8 days when treated with multivitamin tablets, and the population standard deviation of recovery time from a cold is 1.5 days when treated with placebo tablets. It is also known that both populations are approximately normally distributed. The researchers claim that the mean recovery time, l, of the patients treated…
In an early home game, an NBA team made 66 of their 100 free throw attempts. In one of theirlast home games, the team made 68 of 90 attempts. At α = .10, did the team significantlyimprove its free throw percentage (left-tailed test)?
A new screening test for Lyme disease is developed for use in the general population. The sensitivity and specificity of the new test are 60% and 70%, respectively. Five hundred people are screened at a clinic during the first year the new test is implemented. Assume the true prevalence of Lyme disease among clinic attendees is 10%. Calculate the predictive value of a positive test.
Dr. Ingrid is conducting an experiment to see whether time spent reading is related to poor vision. To do so, she creates three groups and randomly assigns 17 participants to each: the first group reads for 30 min a day, the second group reads for 1hr a day, and the third group reads for 1.5 hrs a day. Dr. Ingrid plans on using a one-way ANOVA to analyze the results of her experiment. If Dr. Ingrid has set alpha to .01, what will be her critical value of F?
If I calculate a z test statistic of 4.84, and my α=0.05, what decision should I make about the hypothesis? (Calculate the p-value for a 2-sided test to make your decision.)
Refer to Exercise 8.S.1. Compare the before and after populations using a t test at α = 0.05. Use a nondirectional alternative.
The NAEP considers that a national average of 283 is an acceptable performance. Using α = .05, run a two-tail t-test for one sample to test Ho: µ=283 for the 2019 scores. Report the t-obt, df, and p-values. Would you reject the null hypothesis that the 2019 scores come from a population with average 283? If this is the case, does it come from a population from larger or smaller average?
A random selection of volunteers at a research institute have been exposed to a typical cold virus. After they started to have cold symptoms, 15 of them were given multivitamin tablets formulated to fight cold symptoms. The remaining 15 volunteers were given placebo tablets.
