Context - The study aims to test the role of priority effects in fruit fly communities. I tested whether the timing of one species arriving at a particular site causes any alteration to the environment, making it more or less desirable for a second species to come. What does the data suggest? What does anova P = .45 means?

Belsky, Weinrub, Owen and Kelly (2001) reported on the effects of preschool child care on the development of young children. One result suggests that children who spend more time away from their mothers are more likely to show behavioral problems in kindergarten. Using a standardized scale, the average rating of behavioural problems for kindergarten children is u=35. A sample of n=16 kindergarten children who had spent at least 20 hours per week in child care during the previous year produce a mean score of 42.7 with a standard deviation of s=6. Using a one-tailed test with alpha level of 0.01, your conclusion is "fail to reject Ho". Select one: O True O False
2. 90 male volunteers are randomly assigned to three different treatment programs designed to produce a weight loss by focusing on either diet, exercise, or the modification of eating behaviour. Weight changes were recorded, to the nearest pound, for all participants who completed the two-month experiment. Positive scores signify a weight drop; negative scores, a weight gain (in kg).

The Wisconsin Fish and Game Department stocked a lake with 30% catfish, 15 % bass, 40% bluegill, and 15% Northern Pike. Five years later they took a random sample of 500 fish from the lake and found 120 catfish, 85 bass, 220 bluegill, and 75 Northern Pike. At the 5% level of significance, can we show that the distribution of fish changed over the 5-year interval? State and test appropriate hypotheses. State conclusions.

A researcher is interested in seeing what effect a particular type of drug has on an intelligence test, depending on the time of day that the pill is administered. The researcher computes a two-way ANOVA and plots the resulting cell means on the graph at right. Assuming that any obvious differences are statistically significant Is there a main effect for type of pill? Is there a main effect for time of day? Is there an interaction? 4. Describe the findings of the study in everyday terms

A report states that the cost of repairing a hybrid vehicle is falling even while typical repairs on conventional vehicles are getting more expensive. The most common hybrid repair, replacing the hybrid inverter assembly, had a mean repair cost of $3,927 in 2012. Industry experts suspect that the cost will continue to decrease given the increase in the number of technicians who have gained expertise on fixing gas-electric engines in recent months. Suppose a sample of 100 hybrid inverter assembly repairs completed in the last month was selected. The sample mean repair cost was $3,750 with the sample standard deviation of $600. Is there sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis using α=0.10? Choose one of the following. -Reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence at the 0.10 level of significance that the population mean cost is less than $3,927. - Do not reject the null hypothesis. There is insufficient evidence at the 0.10 level of significance that the…
The article “Well-Fed Crickets Bowl Maidens Over” (Nature Science Update, February 11, 1999) reported that female field crickets are attracted to males with high chirp rates and hypothesized that chirp rate is related to nutritional status. The usual chirp rate for male field crickets was reported to vary around a mean of 60 chirps per second. To investigate whether the chirp rate was related to nutritional status, investigators fed 22 male crickets a high protein diet for 8 days, after which chirp rate was measured. Let: The parameter μμ be the mean chirp rateof male crickets on a high protein diet for 8 days. Given: The mean chirp rate for the random sample of crickets on the high protein diet was reported to be 65.32 chirps per second with a standard deviation of 12. Research Question: Is there convincing evidence that the mean chirp rate for crickets on a high protein diet implies an advantage in attracting the ladies? It is known that the researchers did not want to…
A team of epidemiologists at the Mayo Clinic wanted to find whether there is an association between obesity and cardiovascular disease (CVD). They conducted a prospective cohort study following obese and non-obese individuals who were free of CVD at the beginning of study for five years. The investigators were also interested in assessing age as a potential confounder, effect modifier, or both. Use the data below to answer the accompanying questions. CVD No CVD Total Obese 10 90 100 Not Obese 35 465 500 Total 45 555 600 CVD No CVD Total Obese 36 164 200 Not Obese 25 175 200 Total 61 339 400 1. Compute the appropriate measure of association for those who were less than age 50. 2. Compute the appropriate measure of association for those who were older or equal to age 50. 3. Compute the crude measure of association? 4. List three attributes that age must satisfy before it could…
