In a study, researchers wanted to measure the effect of alcohol on the hippocampal region, the portion of the brain responsible for long-term memory storage, in adolescents. The researchers randomly selected 21 adolescents with alcohol use disorders to determine whether the hippocampal volumes in the alcoholic adolescents were less than the normal volume of 9.02 cm. An analysis of the sample data revealed that the hippocampal volume is approximately normal with no outliers and x = 8.13 cm and s =0.8 cm. Conduct the appropriate test at the a= 0.01 level of significance. State the null and alternative hypotheses. Ho: H (Type integers or decimals. Do not round.) Identify the t-statistic. to = (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Identify the P-value P-value = (Round to three decimal places as needed.)

The leader of two postpartum women’s support groups is interested in the depression levels of the women in her groups. She administers the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) screening test to the members of her groups. The CES-D is a 20-question self-test that measures depressive feelings and behaviors during the previous week. The mean depression level from the screening test for the 10 women in the first group is μ₁ = 16; the mean depression level for the 14 women in the second group is μ₂ = 10. Without calculating the weighted mean for the combined group, you know that the weighted mean is:
In a study, researchers wanted to measure the effect of alcohol on the hippocampal region, the portion of the brain responsible for long-term memory storage, in adolescents. The researchers randomly selected 13 adolescents with alcohol use disorders to determine whether the hippocampal volumes in the alcoholic adolescents were less than the normal volume of 9.02 cm. An analysis of the sample data revealed that the hippocampal volume is approximately normal with no outliers and x = 8.16 cm3 and s = 0.7 cm3.

The National Cancer Institute conducted a 2-year study to determine whether cancer death rates for areas near nuclear power plants are higher than for areas without nuclear facilities. A spokesperson for the Cancer Institute said, "From the data at hand, there was no convincing evidence of any increased risk of death from any of the cancers surveyed due to living near nuclear facilities." Let p denote the proportion of the population in areas near nuclear power plants who die of cancer during a given year. The researchers at the Cancer Institute have considered the null and alternative hypotheses below: А. Họ: p = value for areas without nuclear facilities Hạ: p> value for areas without nuclear facilities According to the spokesperson's statement, what is the conclusion of the National Cancer Institute? Select one of the following: Reject Ho Fail to reject Ho Reject Ha Fail to reject Ha
A 1-1 matched case-control study was conducted among office workers on the association between suffering chronic lower back pain and sitting at a PC. There were 118 cases (suffering from back pain), individually matched to controls (not suffering from back pain) on sex, age, and general exercise habits. The exposure was the amount of time spent at a PC. The data are in Table 1: Case > 4 hours/day 4 hours/day 18 13 <4 hours/day 25 62 Use a suitable test to test for no association between suffering chronic lower back pain and time spent sitting at a PC.
They then decided to determine whether the effect of the phone depended on how dependent people were on their phones. They had participants complete a scale to measure phone dependence (e.g., I would have trouble getting through a normal day without my phone) and classified them as high or low in dependence. They then analysed working memory task performance in a 2 (location: outside, desk) x 2(dependence: high, low) ANOVA. In this design, "dependence" is a(n) O a. Independent variable O b. Extraneous variable O c. Dependent variable O d. Subject variable
In a study, researchers wanted to measure the effect of alcohol on the hippocampal region, the portion of the brain responsible for long-term memory storage, in adolescents. The researchers randomly selected 15 adolescents with alcohol use disorders to determine whether the hippocampal volumes in the alcoholic adolescents were less than the normal volume of 9.02 cm. An analysis of the sample data revealed that the hippocampal volume is approximately normal with no outliers and x= 8.01 cm and s= 0.7 cm.

Researchers have noted a decline in cognitive functioning as people age (Bartus, 1990). However, the results from other research suggest that the antioxidants in foods such as blueberries may reduce and even reverse these age-related declines (Joseph et al., 1999). To examine this phenomenon, suppose that a researcher obtains a sample of n = 16 adults who are between the ages of 65 and 75. The researcher uses a standardized test to measure cognitive performance for each individual. The participants then begin a 2-month program in which they receive daily doses of a blueberry supplement. At the end of the 2-month period, the researcher again measures cognitive performance for each participant. The results show an average increase in performance of MD = 7.4 with SS = 1215. Does this result support the conclusion that the antioxidant supplement has a significant effect on cognitive performance? Use a two-tailed test with α = .05. Show your computations.
The Wall Street Journal asked Concur Technologies, Inc., an expense management company, to examine data from 8.3 million expense reports to provide insights regarding business travel expenses. Their analysis of the data showed that New York was the most expensive city. The following table shows the average daily hotel room rate (X) and the average amount spent on entertainment (Y) for a random sample of 9 of the 25 most-visited U.S. cities. These data lead to the estimated regression equation y = 17.49 + 1.0334x. For these data SSE = 1541.4. Use Table 1 of Appendix B. a. Predict the amount spent on entertainment for a particular city that has a daily room rate of $89 (to 2 decimals). b. Develop a 95% confidence interval for the mean amount spent on entertainment for all cities that have a daily room rate of $89 (to 2 decimals). c. The average room rate in Chicago is $128. Develop a 95% prediction interval for the amount spent on entertainment in Chicago (to 2 decimals).
