Four male monkeys were raised individually, and their testosterone levels were measured. They were then put together in the same cage and, after two months, their testosterone was measured again. The mean of the difference scores for testosterone level (time 2 minus time 1) was Mp= 2.70. The standard deviation of the difference scores (Sp)= 2.54. Test the hypothesis that when male monkeys live with others (time 2) they have higher testosterone levels than when they live alone (time 1). Use alpha = 0.05.

One sample of n = 4 scores has a mean of M = 12, and a second smaple with n = 6 scores has a mean of M = 8. If the two samples are combined, what is the mean for the combined set of scores?
A teacher was interested in the number of times her students with ADHD interrupted her class each day. She has 9 students in her class and collected data for 2 weeks. She found the average was µ = 27 and the standard deviation was σ = 1.2. The teacher and students’ parents started the child on a program of behavior therapy in class and at home. After 2 weeks the teacher found the average number of interruptions was 25. What is the value of Z Z= -1.67 Z = -5.00 Z = -.133 Z = -15.04 Is there evidence the program was effective. Test the probability of these results using α .05, two tailed.
The scores in an intelligent test (IQ test) are known to be normally distributed with a mean of 100 and standard deviation of 16. All in a high school took the IQ test. What score a participant has who has 22% of the participants with less scores?
A study of 100 patients is performed to determine if cholesterol levels are lowered after 3 months of taking a new drug. Cholesterol levels are measured on each individual at the beginning of the study and 3 months later. The cholesterol change is calculated which is the value at 3 months minus the value at the beginning of the study. On average the cholesterol levels among these 100 patients decreased by 15.0 and the standard deviation of the changes in cholesterol was 40. What can be said about the 2 sided p-value for testing the null hypothesis of no change in cholesterol levels? (a) The p value is less than. 05 (b) The p value is greater than .05 (c) The p value is equal to .05 (d) Cannot be determined from the information
A sample of 9 freshmen takes a reading comprehension test and their scores are a mean of 10 and SS=72. Ifthe mean for the general population on this test is  = 12, can you conclude that this sample is significantlydifferent from the population? Test with  = .05.
A psychologist is studying smokers' self-images, which she measures by the self-image (SI) score from a personality inventory. For adults in the U.S., the mean SI score from this inventory is about 150. The psychologist gathers a random sample of 10 SI scores of smokers and finds that their mean population of SI scores of smokers is normally distributed with mean u. Based on the sample, can the psychologist conclude that u is different from 150? Use 177 and their standard deviation is 30. Assume that the the 0.05 level of significance. Perform a two-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places and round your answers as specified in the table. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) State the null hypothesis H and the alternative hypothesis H. Ho :0 H :0 (b) Determine the type of test statistic to use. t Degrees of freedom: 9 D=0 OSO (c) Find the value of the test statistic.

In 1988, on the math SAT, the males taking the exam averaged about 500, while the females averaged about 455. Both histograms followed the normal curve, and both standard deviations were about 100. Estimate the percentage of males in 1988 scoring over 600 Estimate the percentage of females in 1988 scoring over 600. What is the 10th percentile of the scores for the males? What is the first quartile of the scores for the females?
What are the null hypothesis (H) and the alternative hypothesis (H,) that should be used for the test? H: u is ? ? Н H: µ is ? ? In the context of this test, what is a Type I error? A Type I error is ? v the hypothesis that u is ? ? v when, in fact, u is ? Suppose that the researcher decides not to reject the null hypothesis. What sort of error might he be making? ?
