I need help with something regarding this problem. The National Sleep Foundation recommends that adults aged 18 to 64 get an average of 8 hours of sleep per night. A survey of sleep hours was taken during a Statistics class. The data is listed below: 4, 5, 5, 5, 5.5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 8, 9, 9, 9, 10, 10 Do we have enough evidence at the 0.05 significance level to say that statistics students tend to get less sleep than the recommended average of 8 hours per night? How would I get the degrees of freedom?
If you are conducting a study on the academic performance of students who are registered members of any of the university's sports and culturals clubs. Would you consider this study to require a quantitative or qualitative approach? Justify your answer
what is the predicted number of sleep hours for persons with 60 years of age?
Suppose a neighborhood has few very expensive homes and many low value homes. Which measure of central tendency a. would give the highest "average"? Why? b. would give the lowest "average"? Why? c. would be the most representative "average"? Why?
2. It is known that the student score data in a class is as follows: 9, 8, 6, 7, 7, 8, 5, 3, 6, 7 Describe the data in terms of central tendency!
Consider the following research questions/study scenarios. For each study, discuss the most appropriate methods for describing the data (graphically and numerically). What statistical method would be most appropriate for addressing the research questions? Be sure to provide a justification of the statistical method. What statistical test is needed, provide appropriate null and research hypotheses. An investigation of the association between drink preferences and the color of teeth is proposed. Subjects will be surveyed as to the type of drink most often consumed (coffee/tea. Juice, caramel-colored soda, water, or milk). A clinical exam will be performed after dental cleaning to determine the color of the teeth (reddish brown, reddish yellow, gray, reddish gray).
Calculate the most appropriate measures of central tendency and dispersion for the following variable. Respondents were asked to rank how likely they would support ending Obamacare on a scale ranging from 0, definitely would not support, to 10, would definitely support. Here are their scores: 0, 0, 5, 5, 6, 8, 10, 7, 1, 2, 3, 0, 4, 5, 1, 9, 10, 7, 1, 2, 0, 6, 8
I want to assess the effects of diet (control diet, high-sugar diet, high-fat diet) and exercise (no voluntary running wheel, voluntary running wheel) on time spent in a target quadrant (more time indicates better memory). I record the percent time spent in a target quadrant for 30 mice and obtain the following data: Control Diet High-sugar Diet High-fat diet No running wheel 15, 28, 29, 30, 25 24, 20, 30, 32, 20 19, 23, 22, 23, 25 Running wheel 30, 34, 35, 44, 32 21, 22, 28, 26, 29 30, 32, 28, 19, 26 What type of factorial design is this? (ex: # x #) ______________ What is the critical F value you’ll be making a decision based on (assume alpha = .05)? Diet: ____ Exercise: _____ Interaction: ______
A researcher would like to conduct a study related to student emotional intelligence (EQ) in a university. The researcher would like to examine two objectives in his study. First, he would like to examine whether the EQ training and coaching programme will improve the level of EQ for university students. Second, he would like to study the relationship between student academic performance (CGPA) and students’ emotional intelligence (EQ) in a university. Twenty samples of students from the first year were taken for the study. The researcher has collected the data for a few variables: gender, academic performance, and emotional intelligence (EQ) test score. The study is divided into two parts. First, the student must answer the emotional intelligence (EQ) test assessment before attending the EQ training and coaching programme. Second, the researcher will request the same twenty students to attend a one-month emotional intelligence (EQ) coaching and training programme. Upon completing the…
