Assortative Mating: Assortative mating is a nonrandom mating pattern where individuals with similar genotypes and/or phenotypes mate with one another more frequently than what would be expected under a random mating pattern. Researchers studying this topic collected data on eye colors of 208 Scandinavian men and their female partners. The table below summarizes the results (rows represent male eye color while columns represent female eye color). For simplicity, we only include heterosexual relationships in this exercise. (Round any numerical answers to 4 decimal places if possible.)

The training director of a company is trying to evaluate three different methods of training new employees. The first method assigns each to an experienced employee for individual help in the factory. The second method puts all new employees in a training room separate from the factory, and the third method uses films and programmed learning materials. The training director chooses 18 new employees assigned at random to the three training methods and records their daily production after they complete the programs. Below are productivity measures for individuals trained by each method. Method 1 Method 2 Method 3 45 59 41 40 43 37 50 47 43 39 51 40 53…
In the year 2000, the state of Indiana began a $40-million renovation of its state fairgrounds, which included the building of a miniature golf course and a state- of-the-art livestock building. Now, Indiana officials are interested in learning what sorts of people are visiting the new attractions. In a survey done at this year's state fair, it was found that, among a random sample of 80 couples at the fair with their children, 54 had visited the new miniature golf course, and among an independently chosen, random sample of 65 couples at the fair on a date (without children), 31 had visited the miniature golf course. Based on these samples, can we conclude, at the 0.05 level of significance, that the proportion p, of all couples attending the fair with their children who visited the miniature golf course is different from the proportion p, of all couples attending the fair on a date who visited the miniature golf course? Perform a two-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry…
Kim Kardashian is interested in studying the phenomenon of selfies more deeply. She randomly selects 20 of her Instagram followers' feeds. For each selected feed, she records the number of selfies posted in the past year and the number of people in the foreground of the picture. What is the sample of this study? Question 2 options: 1) The 20 feeds that she analyzed 2) The Instagram feeds of all of Kim's followers 3) All Instagram users 4) All people who take selfies
Assortative mating is a nonrandom mating pattern where individuals with similar genotypes and/or phenotypes mate with one another more frequently than what would be expected under a random mating pattern. Researchers studying this topic collected data on eye colors of 207 Scandinavian men and their female partners.

3. Bayesian Inference A cab was involved at night in a hit and run accident. In this town there are only two cab companies, the Blue with 80% of the cabs and the Green company with the remaining 20%. As it happened there was a witness to the accident who identified the hit and run cab as Blue. The case came to trial. An important part of the testimony was a test of the reliability of the eyewitness to identify a cab as being either Blue or Green under the same circumstances as those that existed the night of the accident. The result of these tests was that the witness correctly identified a blue cab as blue 70% of the time and a green cab as green 80% of the time. On the basis of the claim of the eyewitness and the test conducted by the court, what is the probability that the cab involved in the accident was in fact Blue as the witness had claimed?
Sleep researchers were trying to understand the impact of cell phone use before bedtime on the amount of time it took a person to fall asleep. Using a matched pairs design, they chose 8 subjects and recorded the amount of time it took the subject to fall asleep, both when using the cell phone up to attempting to sleep and stopping using the cell phone 2 hours prior to attempting to sleep, in random order. The amount of time for each person for each attempt is recorded in the table below. Person 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8Until Attempt 22 17 45 15 35 19 36 18Two Hours Prior 18 18 40 8 23 15 32 12Difference a.

12)A crossover trial is a type of experiment used to compare two drugs. Subjects take one drug for a period of time, then switch to the other. The responses of the subjects are then compared using matched-pair methods. In an experiment to compare two pain relievers, seven subjects took one pain reliever for two weeks, then switched to the other. They rated their pain level from 1 to 10, with larger numbers representing higher levels of pain. The results are listed below. Can you conclude that the mean pain level is more with drug B? Use the 0.05 level and the P-value method. Subject 1 2 3 5 3 4 5 6 7 2 5 2 6 Drug A 1 1 Drug B 3 7 (c) State the appropriate null and alternate hypotheses. (d) Compute the P-value. e) State a conclusion. 6 5 6 6 (c) Determine whether to reject Null Hypothesis. 13
Marketing research has indicated that males and females may have different color preferences in visual advertising with males preferring brighter colors and females preferring softer tones. To test this theory, researchers surveyed females and males by asking them to rate two different visual advertisements for clothing items with the first ad primarily having bright red and blue lettering and graphics and the second primarily having pastel blue and yellow lettering and graphics. The results were as follows. Preferred BrightBlue and Red Preferred PastelBlue and Yellow Total Males 85 50 135 Females 65 80 145 Researchers suggested that males would be more likely to prefer the brighter colors than females. (a) If p1 represents the true proportion of males that prefer brighter colors in advertisements, and p2 represents the true proportion of females that prefer brighter colors in advertisements, state the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses for this study.

This semester, we have talked about creating random samples as well as desirable qualities of random samples. Other than randomness, one quality of random samples that we have talked about is representation. Using your knowledge of that concept, consider this problem. At a college, 29% of the students are in their first year, 27% are in their second year, 25% in their third, and 19% in their fourth. You take a survey of students and when you classify them by year of study, you have 49, 70, 56, and 25 students in their first, second, third, and fourth years respectively. The table below highlights this information. Year of School First Second Third Fourth Total College Percents Sample Counts Expected Counts 27% 70 25% 56 29% 19% 49 25 200 58 54 50 38 Under the assumption that we think the college enrollment percentages should match our sample, and that therefore our sample represents the college: a) What would the critical value be? (use a = 0.05) b) Find the test statistic to test (c)…
Ecologists conducted a study to investigate the potential ecological impact of golf courses. Investigators monitored the reproductive success of bluebirds in birdhouses at nine golf courses and ten similar birdhouses at nongolf sites. Data on nests in birdhouses occupied only by bluebirds are shown in the table. If the proportions of nests occupied is the same for golf and nongolf sites, what would be the expected count of birdhouse with 1 nest in nongolf locations?

True or False: Suppose I conducted a study using random assignment. This suggests that I took great effort to ensure that all of my subjects had an equal chance of being in either group.
