An experiment was conducted to compare anxiety levels among children induced between looking at snakes and pictures of snakes. The following data were collected from a sample of 10 children with orphidiophobia (fear of snakes). Use a =1.01.

A social psychologist recently developed a childhood-memories test that is intended to measure how people recall pleasant and unpleasant experiences from childhood. Scores on the test range from 1 (very unpleasant) to 100 (very pleasant). The psychologist standardized the test with a large group of college students (ages 18-25), and the mean score was p=60. The test was then given to a sample of n=25 individuals who were all between the ages of 40 and 45. The average score for this sample was 64.3 with SS (sum of squares)=600. Note: S?=SS÷df (variance is equal to sum of squares divided by the degrees of freedom). What is your conclusion if you were to test the hypothesis using one- tailed test at a=0.05? O a. Reject the null hypothesis O b. Fail to reject the null hypothesis O c. Accept the null hypothesis O d. None of the above
2. In studying the effect of a drug for treating patients with respiratory problems, a researcher obtained a sample of 12 consenting patients, who, after discussion with their doctor, chose a respiratory drug they would receive. Patients' respiratory tests were assessed twice over a two-month period after initiating the treatment. Research question: The researcher wants to know if there is a significant difference between the group in their second test and those that didn't take the drug in their overall mean of 3.35 in average respiratory scores with a standard deviation of .08. Is there a difference between the two means - does the drug work? Carry out 9 steps of hypothesis testing. Respiratory Test 2 3.4 3.4 3.3 3.4 3.3 3.3 3.3 3.2 3.2 3.2 3.2 3.3 Σ-39.5
An article reported the results of a peer tutoring program to help children learn to read. In the experiment, the children were randomly divided into two groups: the experimental group received peer tutoring along with regular instruction, and the control group received regular instruction with no peer tutoring. There were n1 = n2 = 30 children in each group. The Gates-MacGintie Reading Test was given to both groups before instruction began. For the experimental group, the mean score on the vocabulary portion of the test was x1 = 344.5, with sample standard deviation s1 = 49.5. For the control group, the mean score on the same test was x2 = 353.8, with sample standard deviation s2 = 50.9. Use a 5% level of significance to test the hypothesis that there was no difference in the vocabulary scores of the two groups before the instruction began. What is the value of the sample test statistic? (Test the difference μ1 − μ2. Round your answer to three decimal places.)
Suppose IQ scores were obtained for 20 randomly selected sets of couples. The 20 pairs of measurements yield x = 98.91, y = 99, r= 0.937, P-value = 0.000, and y = 5.67 + 0.94x, where x represents the IQ score of the wife. Find the best predicted value of y given that the wife has an IQ of 95? Use a significance level of 0.05. Click the icon to view the critical values of the Pearson correlation coefficient r. The best predicted value of y is (Round to two decimal places as needed.)

Students in a representative sample of 65 first-year students selected from a large university in England participated in a study of academic procrastination. Each student in the sample completed the Tuckman Procrastination Scale, which measures procrastination tendencies. Scores on this scale can range from 16 to 64, with scores over 40 indicating higher levels of procrastination. For the 65 first-year students in this study, the mean score on the procrastination scale was 37.2 and the standard deviation was 6.41. USE SALT (a) Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of μ, the mean procrastination scale for first-year students at this college. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) (b) Based on your interval, is 40 a plausible value for the population mean score? O Yes O No What does this imply about the population of first-year students? O This implies that on average, students at this university do have high levels of procrastination. O This implies that students at this…
This is a friendly reminder about scientific notation. Excel reports very small numbers in scientific notation. For example, 8.15E-05 is typical notation for 8.15 x 10-5. The exponent of -5 means you have to move the decimal five places to the left and fill in with zeroes. What you get is 0.0000815.

3. A researcher was interested in the effects of a drug on depression. Subjects were randomly assigned to one of the three groups. Subjects in the control group received a placebo and the subjects in the two treatment groups received either a 0.2 mg or a 0.4 mg dosage of the drug. After several weeks of drug (or placebo) treatment, the researcher measured the subjects' level of depression (a low score indicating greater depression) The following data were obtained.
