An education researcher is interested in students’ performance on a standardized reading test. The researcher believes that if students participate in an extracurricular training session, then they will be more likely to perform better on the reading test.This researcher is testing two hypotheses. The first is that the training session provides specific instruction and has an effect on students’ reading test scores. The second is that this treatment effect is likely moderated by the number of languages spoken. Past research has suggested that the school in this example has a lot of bilingual students. However, to control for this possibility, a 2-way (2x2) factorial ANOVA is being conducted to account for any influence from language, the treatment, and the interaction of the two main effects. To test the hypotheses, the research has obtained 28 participants: 14 English-only speakers and 14 students who speak English and at least one other language. From each group of 14, 7 students were randomly chosen for the treatment group. After the treatment, all students were given the same test. This test has been used in previous research, has a range of 0 to 100, and measures students' reading comprehension. (The higher the test score, the more positive the result.)Use a 2x2 ANOVA with α = 0.02 to test the data and evaluate the hypotheses. Results are provided below for each group of students.| | **Factor B: Treatment** ||---------------------------------|-----------------------------------|| **Factor A: Languages** | **Control: No Training** | **Treatment: Attend Training** || **English only** | 53.2 | 67.2 || | 54.6 | 67.6 || | 45.0 | 70.4 || | 46.6 | 76.2 || | 61.9 | 61.5 || | 41.9 | 71.0 || | 35.8 | 55.6 || **Multilingual** | | || | 59.9 | 83.1 || | 41.6 | 66.7 || | 61.6

Exercise is known to produce positive psychological effects. Interestingly, not all exercise is equally effective. It turns out that exercising in a natural environment (e.g., jogging in the woods) produces better psychological outcomes than exercising in urban environments or in homes (Mackay & Neill, 2010). Suppose that a sports psychologist is interested in testing whether there is a difference between exercise in nature and exercise in the lab with respect to post-exercise anxiety levels. The researcher recruits n 5 7 participants who exercise in the lab and exercise on a nature trail. The data below represent the anxiety scores that were measured after each exercise session. Treat the data as if the scores are from an independent-measures study using two separate samples, each with n 5 7 participants. Compute the pooled variance, the estimated standard error for the mean difference, and the independent-measures t statistic. Using a 5 .05, is there a significant difference…
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?
A significant interaction was found between depression, social support and GPA. These results should be considered with caution and further research should be done to better understand the relationships between these variables. Furthermore, those working with college students should consider the overall well-being of the student, as it is possible that their academic performance may not be affected by anxiety and/or depression. IS THIS A TYPE 1 ERROR OR A TYPE 2 ERROR IN RESEARCH?
Q1A Hi wonderful Bartleby team, I need help with this exercise, please provide answer and short explanation for all the answers. Thanks in advance. The last part of it is the sentence and the options are: -(Reject/ Fail to reject) the null hypothesis. There (Is / Not) sufficient evidence to support the claim that those treated with magnets have a greater mean reduction in pain than those given a sham treatment.
According to a book published in 2011, 45% of the undergraduate students in the United States show almost no gain in learning in their first two years of college (Richard Arum et al., Academically Adrift, University of Chicago Press, Chicago, 2011). A recent sample of 1540 undergraduate students showed that this percentage is 37%. Can you reject the null hypothesis at a 2.5% significance level in favor of the alternative that the percentage of undergraduate students in the United States who show almost no gain in learning in their first two years of college is currently lower than 45%. Use both the p-value and the critical-value approaches. Round your answers for the observed value of z and the critical value of z to two decimal places, and the p-value to four decimal places. Zobserved = p-value = Critical value = i Hence we can conclude that the percentage of undergraduate students in the U.S. who show almost no gain in learning in their fırst two years of college is currently 45%.
In 2015, a survey found that 38% of Americans were supportive of online education for elementary and secondary education. With the increase in contagious viruses, it is of interest if this proportion has changed. In a 2019 poll, 51% of 1028 Americans were supportive of online education for elementary and secondary education. At the 10% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of all American adults who support online education for elementary and secondary education has changed from what was believed in 2015? Choose the choice that gives the null and alternative hypothesis.
An experimental study was conducted on the effect of programmed materials in English on the performance of 20 selected college students. Before the program was implemented pretest was administered and after 5 months the same instrument was used to get the post-test result.
When two independent variables produce effects when combined that would not be present if each independent variables was manipulated in a separate study, we say that there is O no main effect. O only a measured variable an interaction. O a planned comparison. rist and Stangor (2001) studied prejudice and found that you can't predict a person's behavior toward minorities on the basis of whether they are high or low
Recent research findings have shown that older people who practice ballroom dancing are 77% less likely to experience dementia compared to those senior citizens who did not dance. Drawing on this surprising result, Dr. Anders Ericsson thinks that ballroom dancing may also reduce one's level of stress to a greater extent than conventional exercise routines. To validate his claim Dr. Ericsson has randomly selected 100 senior citizens who were then randomly split into two groups, with the first group practicing ballroom dancing 3 times a week and the second group undergoing a conventional exercise regiment 3 times a week also. The measures of stress were assessed for each participant after the study was completed. What is the most appropriate set of hypotheses for this study? HO: μD- 0; H1: μD 0 HO: µD = 0; H1: µD > 0 %3D HO: udance - pexercise = 0; H1: µdance - pexercise <0
Mood variation is related to photoperiod in some people, and the likelihood of depression increases in the winter months. As a result, people often assume that suicide rates increase in winter. A study in Finland (Valtonen et al. 2006) divided the year 1997 into equal halves and compared the number of suicides in “winter” (24 September to 19 March) and “summer” (remainder of year). Out of a total of 1636 suicides, 766 were in winter and 870 were in the summer. Based on these data, estimate the proportion of suicides that occurred in winter, assuming that the suicides were independent. Are the data compatible with a greater suicide rate in winter than summer, based on a 95% confidence interval?
You are conducting a hypothetical retrospective study on use of plastics and prevalence of current medical problems in students. You hypothesize that participants who used more plastic cups in high school will exhibit more medical problems today. You ask all PH1 students to recall how many times they drank out of plastic cups in high school. Your participants struggle to recall this information and end up guessing how often they used plastic drinking containers in high school. Your study design will be negatively impacted by: (select one) A. Misrepresentation B. Recall error C. Negative associations D. Recall bias
