In a study conducted with female employees, it is claimed that the rate of those who prefer to work with a "woman manager" in their workplaces is less than 0.60. Test the claim at the 3% significance level since 54% of the 340 female employees stated that they prefer to work with a female manager at their workplace.

We predict that children exhibit more aggressive act after watching a violent television show. The scores for ten children were recorded before they watched a violent show and then after they watched a violent show. Aggression was measured in terms of number of aggressive acts (e.g. hitting, yelling, kicking etc). Sample 1 (after TV show): 5,6,4,4,7,3,2,1,4,1 Sample 2 (before TV show): 4,6,3,2,4,1,0,0,5,2 What is the critical value?

Suppose that Kim is a participant in a study that compares several coaching methods to see how they affect math Scholar Aptitude Test (SAT) scores. The grand mean of math SAT scores for all participants (My) in the study is 550. The group that Kim participated in had a mean math SAT score of 565. Kim’s individual score on the math SAT was 610. What was the estimate residual component (of Kim’s score, that is, the part of Kim’s score that was not related to the coaching method? (Both parts of this question call for specific numerical values as answers). What was that “effect” (ai) component of Kim's score? What pattern in grouped data would make SSwithin = 0? What pattern within data would make SSbetween = 0?
