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). For the general population of adolescents, scores on this questionnaire form a normal distribution with a mean of μ = 40 and a standard deviation of σ = 12. You collect a sample of group-participation adolescents with N = 100 and find their score is an average of M = 42.11. Does this sample provide enough evidence to conclude that self-esteem scores for these adolescents are significantly higher than those of the general population? Use a one-tailed test with α = .01. First, what is the standard error of the mean (SEM)? a. 0.83 b.0.35 c.0.12 d.1.2 B) Second, what is the Z-score for the sample? C) What is the critical Z-score?
