A car dealership is deciding the proportion of cars they will order with cloth seats. You have been assigned the task of surveying randomly selected car owners to determine the percentage of car owners that prefer cloth seats. How many car owners must you survey to be 99% confident that the sample is within 5 percentage points of the true population percentage? Assume that records from the past indicate that 30% of car owners prefer cloth seats.
A researcher is interested in whether a new antidepressant drug D has an effect on people's self-rating of depression. She randomly assigns 12 people into two groups so that each group has 6 people. One group is given drug D daily, and the other group is not given drug D. Call these the Drug group and the No Drug group, respectively. After one month of treatment, all 12 people were asked to rate on a scale from 1 to 7 how depressed they felt, where 1 = not depressed at all and 7 = very depressed. The following are the data: Drug No Drug 2 4 3 5 4 5 4 4 2 6 3 6 nD = 6 nND = 6 MD = 3 MND = 5 sD = 0.89 sND = 0.89 Using an α-level of .05, perform a two-tailed t-test to determine whether there was an effect of Drug D on depression ratings. Specifically, answer the following questions: What is the total degrees of freedom for this problem? Calculate the standard error of the…
Suppose you were to collect data for the following pair of variables, all elementary-school students: weight, score on a reading test. You want to make a scatterplot. Which variable would you use as the explanatory variable? What would be the response variable? Would you expect to see a positive or negative association or neither?

he Computer Anxiety Rating Scale (CARS) measures an individual’s level of computer anxiety, on a scale from 20 (no anxiety) to 100 (highest level of anxiety). Researchers at Miami University administered CARS to 172 business students. One of the objectives of the study was to determine whether there are differences in the amount of computer anxiety experienced by students with different majors. They found the following: Major n Mean Marketing 19 44.37 Management 11 43.18 Other 14 42.21 Finance 45 41.80 Accountancy 36 37.56 MIS 47 32.21 (A) Complte the following ANOVA table: Source of Variation SS df MS F-ratio F-crit Between groups 3172 5 634.4 4.9567 2.2685 Within groups 21246 166 127.988 Total 24418 171 (A) At the 0.05 level of significance, is there evidence of a difference in the mean computer anxiety…
A clinical psychologist wants to test the effectiveness of three new therapies that have been developed for reducing anxiety symptoms. The researcher recruits 15 participants and randomly assigns them to take part in Therapy A, Therapy B, or Therapy C for a month. At the end of the month, the researcher measures the participants' anxiety symptoms on a scale from 1 to 10 (where a higher score means more anxiety symptoms). The participants' scores are shown below: What is the appropriate test to use ? 3. What are the null and alternative hypotheses ? 4. Using a two-tailed alpha of .05, determine what the critical value is 5. Calculate the test statistic 6. State whether you reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis for the omnibus test 7. Calculate and report the effect size for the omnibus test 8. Perform a Post-Hoc Test. Report the significance of each pairwise comparison

In a study researching how donating to charity can affect a person's happiness, 96 participants were given $5 a day for one week. Each participant was randomly assigned to one of two groups. Those assigned to the first group were asked to spend the money on themselves, and those assigned to the second group were asked to donate the money to charity. At the end of the week, all of the participants were asked to rate their overall level of happiness on a scale from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating greater levels of happiness. Which of the following are the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses to test whether the sample data provide convincing statistical evidence that donating to charity results in greater happiness than spending on oneself, on average? Ho self- "charity = 0 (A) Ha self charity >0 Ho self Mcharity=0 (B) Ha self charity 0 (E) Ha self = Mcharity <0
A substance abuse counselor wants to demonstrate the effect of situational stress on alcohol cravings. He recruits two groups of men who are similar in respect to history of alcohol use and demographic variables. He divides them in to two groups. In one group(n=11), the men are exposed to a stressful situation and then asked to complete a measure rating their alcohol cravings on a scale from 0-10, where 0 representsno cravings and 10 represents intense cravings. In the second group (n=10), the men are exposed to a neutral situation and asked to complete the same measure. What test and graph should I create to find out if a stressful situation result in more intense alcohol cravings than a non-stressful situation?

Cris Turlock owns and manages a small business in San Francisco, California. The business provides breakfast and brunch food, via carts parked along sidewalks, to people in the business district of the city. Being an experienced businessperson, Cris provides incentives for the salespeople operating the food carts. This year, she plans to offer monetary bonuses to her salespeople based on their individual mean daily sales. Her first task is to see if there is a significant difference in the mean daily sales among the different salespeople. She chooses a "sample" of days for each salesperson and records the sales for each day. She then runs a one-way, independent-samples ANOVA test to determine whether or not she can conclude that at least one salesperson's performances is significantly different from the others. (Otherwise, she'll split the bonuses evenly among all the salespeople.) In her ANOVA, the "groups" are the different salespeople, and the variable of interest is the daily sales…
