A news article that you read stated that 50% of voters prefer the Democratic candidate. You think that the actual percent is smaller. 128 of the 284 voters that you surveyed said that they prefer the Democratic candidate. What can be concluded at the 0.01 level of significance?
GSS 2018 respondents were asked to rate their level of agreement to the statement, “Differences in income in America are too large.” Responses were measured on a 5-point scale: 1 = strongly agree, 2 = agree, 3 = neutral, 4 = disagree, and 5 = strongly disagree. Strong Democrats had an average score of 1.69 (s = 1.04, N = 86) while strong Republicans had an average score of 2.11 (s = 1.05, N = 67). The estimated standard error of the difference between meansis 0.17. What is the appropriate test statistic? Why? Test the null hypothesis with a one-tailed test (strong Democrats are more likely to agree with the statement than strong Republicans); α = .05. What do you conclude about the difference in attitudes for these two political groups? If you conducted a two-tailed test with α = .05, would your decision have been different?

The concept “Job Involvement” is defined as the degree to which an employee is engaged in and enthusiastic about performing his/her work. In a study one section of the questionnaire was designed to measure “Job Involvement” of the employees. There were 6 items in this construct, each measured on a Likert scale of 1 to 5: JINV1. The major satisfaction in my life comes from my job JINV2. My job means a lot more to me than just money JINV3. I will stay overtime to finish a job, even if I am not paid for it JINV4. I look forward to coming to work each day JINV5. I would probably keep working even if I didn’t need the money JINV6. The most important things that happen to me involve my work The questionnaires were self-administered and 200 cases were used in the final analysis. The data were analysed using SPSS. The following are some of the output from factor analysis. 1) Interpret the values in Table 12 2) Overall how good is the instrument in measuring career salience? 3) If there is…

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).
According to an expert for the automotive industry, 68% of Americans know how to drive a manual transmission vehicle. Suppose 220 Americans are sampled. (Give results accurate to at least 4 decimal places.) a. Of the 220 people sampled, 160 respond that they know how to drive a manual transmission vehicle. What is the sample statistic p? p = b. Under the assumption that the industry expert's claim that 68% of Americans know how to drive a manual transmission vehicle is valid, what is the probability that the survey in part (a) would result in a p that is at least as high as the one found? c. Under the assumption that the industry expert's claim that 68% of Americans know how to drive a manual transmission vehicle is valid, what is the probability that the survey in part (a) would result in a p that is between 66% and 71%?
