A survey revealed that a substantial proportion of university students were not engaging in regularexercise. In response to a question on regular exercise, 60% of all graduates reported getting noregular exercise, 25% reported exercising sporadically and 15% reported exercising regularly asundergraduates. The next year the University launched a health promotion campaign on campus inan attempt to increase healthy behaviors among undergraduates. To evaluate the impact of theprogram, the University again surveyed graduates and asked the same questions. The survey wascompleted by 470 graduates and the following data were collected on the exercise question:No Regular ExerciseSporadic ExerciseRegular ExerciseTotalNumber of Students25512590470Based on the data, is there evidence of a shift in the distribution of responses to the exercisequestion following the implementation of the health promotion campaign on campus?

Was the change in the College coefficient between 1992 and 1998 statistically significant at the 5% significance level? O A. Yes. O B. No.
According to a report on consumer fraud and identity theft, 22% of all complaints for a year were for identity theft. In that year, Wisconsin had 787 complaints of identity theft out of 3498 consumer complaints. Does this data provide enough evidence to show that Wisconsin had a higher proportion of identity theft than 22%? Test at the 1% level. State the hypotheses. Ho: p? v Ha: p|? v Calculate the test statistic. Round to four decimal places. Calculate the standardized test statistic. Round to three decimal places. Z = Find the p-value.

Individual actions can play a large role in the overall health of our planet. A researcher interested in evaluating environment friendly behaviors evaluated how often people recycle (per month) based on whether they have an overall optimistic or an overall pessimistic attitude toward eco-friendly behaviors. The results from this hypothetical study are given in the table. Test whether or not recycling behaviors differed between groups using a .05 level of significance. State the value of the test statistics and the decision to retain or reject the null hypothesis. Compute effect size using eta- squared (n^2).

A clinical trial is conducted to compare a new pain re- liever for arthritis to a placebo. Participants are randomly assigned to receive the new medication or a placebo, and the outcome is pain relief within 30 minutes. The data are shown in Table 7–8. Is there a significant difference in the proportions of patients reporting pain relief? Run the test at a 5% level of significance. Pain Relief No Pain Relief New Medication 44 76 Placebo 21 99 How would I use excel with this?
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.
The Survey of Study Habits and Attitudes (SSHA) is a psychological test that measures students' study habits and attitudes toward school. The survey yields several scores, one of which measures student attitudes toward studying. The mean student attitude score for college students is about 30, and standard deviation is about 12. A researcher in the Philippines is concerned about the declining performance of college graduates on professional licensure and board exams. She suspects that poor attitudes of students are partly responsible for the decline and that the mean for college seniors who plan to take professional licensure or board exams is less than 30. She gives the SSHA to an SRS of 144 college seniors in the Philippines who plan to take professional licensure or board exams. Suppose we know that the student attitude scores in the population of such students are Normally distributed with standard deviation σ = 12. (a) We seek evidence against the claim that μ = 30.

A recent article in the Journal of Urban Chicken Farmers reported the fraction of chickens that experience severe, moderate, or minor side effects from a new diet are 0.07, 0.15, and 0.78 respectively. Assuming that chickens respond independently, if 18 chickens were tested on the new diet, what is the: 3. a. Mean number of chickens that will suffer severe side effects? b. Variance in the number of chickens that will suffer severe side effects? C.Conditional mean of the number of chickens that suffer severe side effects given that 17 suffer minor side effects.
In general, why does using a repeated-measures ANOVA increase statistical power compared to using a one-way between-groups ANOVA? Group of answer choices: a.MSbetween is lower b.MSerror is higher c.MSerror is lower d.MSbetween is higher
Dr. Blake is interested in the effects of intoxication on driving ability. Participants are recruited and encouraged to consume one to four mixed drinks during a one-hour period. Dr. Blake records the number of driving errors made while the participants navigate a 20-mile course in a driving simulator and measures the participants' blood alcohol content at the end of the simulation. What statistical test should Dr. Blake use to analyze these data? a. one-way within-groups ANOVA b. one-way between-groups ANOVA c. chi-square test of indepandence d. Pearson correlation coefficient
Identify the statistical procedures that are appropriate for the data. Childhood participation in sports, cultural groups, and youth groups appears to be related to improved self-esteem for adolescents (McGee, Williams, Howden-Chapman, Martin & Kawachi, 2006) in a representative study, a researcher compares scores on a standardized self-esteem questionnaire for a sample of n = 100 adolescents with a history of group participation and a separate sample of n = 100 who have no history of group participation.
A statistician changes her level of significance from .001 to .05. What impact will this change have on her risk of making a Type I and Type II error? Is the change in the level of significance a good decision? Why or why not?
study is designed to investigate whether there is a difference in response to various treatments in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The outcome is patient's self-reported effect of treatment. The data are shown on the next page. Is there a significant difference in effect of treatment? Hint: Are severity of symptoms and treatment independent? Run the test at a 5% level of significance. Demonstrate the five steps for hypothesis testing and draw a conclusion based on your results. Remember to determine the p- value, if relevant.
