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?

Researchers investigate how the presence of cell phones influence the quality of human interaction. Subjects are randomly selected from a population and divided into an experimental group that is asked to leave their phones in the front of the room and a control group that are not asked to leave their cell phones at the front of the room. Subjects are left alone for 10 minutes and then asked to take a survey designed to measure quality of interactions they had with others in the experiment. What statistical test is appropriate?
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?
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?
There is some research to indicate that different dog breeds differ in emotionality. To consider these differences, a researcher administers a standard test of emotionality to 3 breeds of dogs (German Shepherd, Cocker Spaniel, and Chihuahua), with 4 dogs from each breed being tested. Higher scores mean higher emotionality. The results for the emotionality test scores appear below. Using the 7 steps of hypothesis testing, test the idea that there are differences in emotionality based on dog breed using α = .05 Emotionality Scores for Dogs German Shepherd Cocker Spaniel Chihuahua 6 0 10 1 4 12 7 0 9 2 0 8 T = 16 T = 4 T = 39 Gt = 59 N = 12 ∑x2 = 495 4.

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?
A graduate student believes that people consider faces with more contrast between lip color and skin tone as more feminine. She identifies the null hypothesis as: Ho: The level of contrast between lip color and skin tone does not affect how feminine a face is considered. She chooses a significance level of 0.05. After she collects the data and computes the sample statistics, it is time for her to make a decision about the null hypothesis. What are the two possible decisions that the graduate student can make? Check all that apply. There is not enough evidence to reject the hypothesis that the contrast between lip color and skin tone affects how feminine a face is considered. There is enough evidence to reject the hypothesis that the contrast between lip color and skin tone does not affect how feminine a face is considered. There is enough evidence to reject the hypothesis that the contrast between lip color and skin tone affects how feminine a face is considered. ☐ There is not enough…
