a. After performing a biological experiment, you have rejected the Null Hypothesis (H.) stating no significant difference between five compared means. You follow up these results with a post hoc comparison. However, you prefer not to use three tests which are not popular at the present time. What are these tests and what are the reasons for not using them?

If you have questioned that your significant hypothesis test is significant “enough” to have true meaning, what are some other things you can look at to determine practical significance?
When results are not statistically significant, why do you conclude that it is plausible that the two variables are independent rather than concluding that the variables are different independent?
4. Researchers believe that men are more physically aggressive than women. To test this, researchers ask 20 participants (10 male, 10 female) to rate how aggressive they are on a scale from 1 to 10. Their scores are listed below. Conduct all six steps of hypothesis testing (use p=.05). Be sure to label all six steps. Also, include a concluding statement (which should include the effect size).

Suppose you want to find out how many people support Policy X. A standard polling approach is to just ask N many people whether or not they support Policy X, and take the fraction of people who say yes as an estimate of the probability that any one person supports the policy. Suppose that the probability someone supports the policy is p, which you do not know. Let îy be the number of people polled who supported the policy, divided by the total number of people polled N. However, a problem with polling is whether or not people are willing to answer honestly. If a question might be viewed as shameful or embarrassing (about politics, sexual activity, or whatever people are sensitive about), they may be reluctant to answer honestly. A potential solution to this is the following: suppose that 'YES' is the embarrassing or socially shameful answer; give the people you are polling the following instructions: flip a coin privately, and if it comes up heads answer honestly, but if it comes up…
3. You planted seedlings of endangered Schweinitz's sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii) in a prairie site and a roadside site. You want to know if there is a difference in seedling survival between the habitats. What statistical test would you use to analyze your data? What is your null hypothesis? What is your alternative hypothesis?
Acne is a common skin disease that affects most adolescents and can continue into adulthood. A study compared the effectiveness of three acne treatments and a placebo, all in gel form, applied twice daily for 12 weeks. The study's 517 teenage volunteers were randomly assigned to one of the four treatments. Success was assessed as clear or almost clear skin at the end of the 12 week period. The results of the study can be seen in the table below. Using the appropriate statistical test, determine if there is significant evidence that the four treatments perform differently. If so, how do they compare.
For example, let's say that I have the following null hypothesis: "The population mean is equal to 5", and the alternative hypothesis: "The population mean is not equal to five". Then, I collect a sample from the population and after performing the hypothesis test I conclude at the 0.01 significance level: "Reject the null hypothesis", or in plain English "There is enough evidence to reject the claim that the population mean is equal to five". Then, am I proving that the population mean is not equal to five?
You are conducting a hypothesis test where alternative (research) hypothesis is that mu is greater than 850. You are testing at the 0.01 significance level. You take a sample of size 64 and calculate your test statistic to be -1.50. What would your test statistic be if you were testing, instead, at the 0.10 significance level?
What is the Null & Alternative Hypothesis? and what type of analysis you would use to test the hypothesis in your study?
If a researcher rejects the null hypothesis when conducting a hypothesis test, it means that the sample data failed to provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the treatment had an effect. true or false
How do you determine whether or not the paired t test is appropriate for a two-sample hypothesis?
When a researcher conducts an experiment and fails to find significant results, what should she conclude? The research hypothesis is false The current data are inconclusive with regards to the research hypothesis The null hypothesis is true The null hypothesis is false
