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?
It’s assumed that students need to stay awake more to study during finals week. One way to measure this is how much coffee is consumed during Finals week at night. A local coffee house near APU counted the number of cups of coffee sold per hour during Finals week after 6 p.m. We randomly select ten (10) hours of sales records during Finals week and find out that the following number of cups of coffee were consumed: 18, 17, 22, 14, 17, 20, 22, 24, 15, 15 By comparison, the sales records from a previous week were used as a comparison. The following number of cups of coffee were consumed over a seven (7) hour period: 9, 13, 5, 15, 17, 10, 11 a. Determine what is the appropriate statistical procedure, with a brief explanation (one sentence) as to why this is the appropriate procedure. b. State the null hypothesis. c. Execute the proper calculations with the appropriate procedures. d. Present a graph when appropriate of your results. e. Include any appropriate post-hoc tests. f. State…
A research firm reported that 15% of those surveyed described their health as poor, 26% as good, 40% as very good, and 19% as excellent. A health professional in Chicago wanted to determine if people in Chicago had similar feelings toward their health. In a sample of 610 people in Chicago, 70 described their health as poor, 180 as good, 220 as very good, and 140 as excellent. Compute the test value.
A dietician read in a survey that 70.5% of adults in the U.S. do not eat breakfast at least 3 days a week. She believes that the proportion that skip breakfast 3 days a week is different than 0.705. To verify her claim, she selects a random sample of 71 adults and asks them how many days a week they skip breakfast.. 44 of them report that they skip breakfast at least 3 days a week. Test her claim at a = 0.10. The correct hypotheses would be: О Но:р 0.705 (claim) Но: р > 0.705 HA:p < 0.705 (claim) О Но: р — 0.705 HA:P + 0.705 (claim) Since the level of significance is 0.10 the critical value is 1.645 and -1.645 The test statistic is: (round to 3 places) The p-value is: (round to 3 places) The decision can be made to: O reject Ho O do not reject Ho The final conclusion is that: O There is enough evidence to reject the claim that the proportion that skip breakfast 3 days a week is different than 0.705. O There is not enough evidence to reject the claim that the proportion that skip…
A researcher gathered a sample of participants who volunteered for a studying of phobias. She measured anxiety level of participants as they viewed photos of spiders and again when they viewed puppies. Which statistical test is appropriate for this study and why?
Levi-Strauss Co manufactures clothing. The quality control department measures weekly values of different suppliers for the percentage difference of waste between the layout on the computer and the actual waste when the clothing is made (called run-up). The data is in the table, and there are some negative values because sometimes the supplier is able to layout the pattern better than the computer. Do the data show that there is a difference between some of the suppliers? Test at the 1% level.

According to the Humane Society, 33% of households in the United States own at least one cat. You are interested in determining whether the proportion of households of the students at your school that own at least one cat is different from the national proportion. Suppose you survey an SRS of students at your school and find that 25% of them own cats, which yields a p-value of .092. Interpret this p-value.

Some sleep experts believe that sleep apnea is more in men than in the general population. In other words, they claim that the percentage of men who suffer from sleep apnea is greater than 8% (which is the percent believed to affect the population in general). To test this claim, one sleep expert interviews 50 men and determines that 7 of these men suffer from sleep apnea. Does this evidence support the claim at that the percentage of men who suffer from sleep apnea is more than 8%? Use a 0.02 level of significance What are the hypotheses? What is the test statistic? Is it a z or a t? Find the P-value for this test statistic. How does it compare to the significance level? On the normal curve, indicate the location of the test statistic and the p-value. (label them on the graph) Write a conclusion in statistical terms and relate it to the parameters of this problem. Note: The following is not a hypothesis test, but rather a…

Last year, 41% of business owners gave a holiday gift to their employees. A survey of business owners conducted this year indicates that 32% planned to provide a holiday gift to their employees. Suppose the survey results are based on a sample of 55 business owners. Suppose the business owners in the sample do as they plan. Conduct a hypothesis test that can be used to determine whether the proportion of business owners providing holiday gifts had decreased from last year. State the hypotheses.
