A study was conducted to determine if a person's resting heartbeat (how many beats per minute) was related to whether they exercise regularly. They asked a subject if they exercised regularly and then tested to see if their resting heartbeat was less than 70 beats per minute. The results of the study are shown below. Is it more likely that someone who exercises regularly will have a heartbeat below 70 beats per minute or someone who does not exercise regularly will have a heartbeat higher than 70 beats per minute? Justify. Exercises Does Not Exercise Regularly Regularly Heartbeat Above 70 ВРМ 18% 45% Heartbeat Below 70 20% 17% ВРМ

In a recent study on American sleep habits, 1300 adults were asked questions about their sleep cycles. The study found that 39 % say they get sleepy on the job and their work suffers at least a few days each month. An additional 21 % said the problems occur a few days each week and 9 % say sleepiness on the job is a daily occurrence. For the remaining respondents, sleepiness was not a problem at all. Summarize the given information by filling out the frequency and relative frequency distribution table. Sleepy At Work?

A special education teacher did research on whether or not there is a relationship between the number of students in his class and the number incidents of “acting out” behaviors exhibited by the autistic students in the classroom. He collects data for a year and aggregates them by month. He obtained the statistics below, r= -.863 R2=.74 b= -1.212294 a= 131.176598 10.) How does the presence of more students affect the incidents in the class? a) as students are added the incidences increase b) as students are added the incidences decrease c) the number of students does not affect acting out d) the number of students caused more incidents How much of the variability of acting out is explained by the number of students in the class?___________
People tend to evaluate the quality of their lives to others around them. In a demonstration of this phenomenon, Frieswijk, Buunk, Steverink, and Slaets (2004) conducted interviews with frail elderly people. In the interview, each person was compared with fictitious others who were worse off. After the interviews, the elderly people reported more satisfaction with their own lives. Following are hypothetical data similar to those obtained in the research study. The scores are measures of a life-satisfaction scale for a sample of n=9 elderly people who completed the interview. Assume that the average score on this scale is u=20. What is your computed t? Use a one-tailed test with a=0.05. The life satisfaction scores are 18, 23, 24, 22, 19, 27, 23, 26, 25.

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?
In a study assessing helping behavior among college students on their way to class, you recruit 10 students. You tell some participants that they are late for class and need to rush. You tell others they are right on time. Finally, you tell others they have lots of time before class. As they walk across campus, they come across a man (actually a confederate) who appears to need help. You measure the extent to which the participant noticed that the confederate needed help (1 = did not notice to 9 = really noticed). Which hypothesis test would you calculate? F test Independent sample t-test z test Dependent sample t-test

Do colors affect mood? You are particularly interested to know which color gives people a sense of serenity and peacefulness. You conduct an experiment by making participants stay for 20 minutes inside a room painted with a particular color (e.g., Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue). With the use of temperature-sensitive cameras, you record the average body temperature of each individual during their stay inside each room (i.e., lower body temperatures are associated with feelings of calmness and relaxation; higher body temperatures - stimulation, excitement). Results are presented on the table. Red Orange 39 Yellow Green Blue 43 38 33 31 39 43 39 35 34 41 44 42 34 32 42 35 39 37 32 45 40 39 36 35 41 39 38 33 34

Assume that the average score on this scale is u=20. Are the data sufficient to conclude that the people in this sample are significantly more satisfied than others in the general population? Use a one-tailed test with a=0.05. The life satisfaction scores are 18, 23, 24, 22, 19, 27, 23, 26, 25. Do the 4-step procedure to know your answer. You can answer either a "Yes" or "No". Answer:
Professor Rouge wants to see if the color red increases people's attraction. For all participants, she shows them someone in a red shirt, someone in a blue shirt, and someone in a green shirt - and the participant rates each person from 1-10 in terms of their attractiveness. The data that she collected are below. Conduct the appropriate statistic in order to test her hypothesis. Include calculations of the effect size. Report your findings in a brief paragraph (a complete paragraph, like the one from class) and include the two tables that we did in class.

A physical therapist wanted to know whether the mean step pulse of men was less than the mean step pulse of women. She randomly selected 59 men and 73 women to participate in the study. Each subject was required to step up and down a 6-inch platform. The pulse of each subject was then recorded. The following results were obtained. SE Mean 1.5 1.7 SIDev 11.2 Mean 112.7 Men Women 99% CI for mu Men - mu Women -11.89, 0.09) T-Test mu Men mu Women (vs<) T= -2.61 P=0.0051 DF 129 59 73 118.6 14.8 Two sample T for Men vs Women State the researcher's condlusion. Which of the following is correct? O A Reject Ha, there is sufficient evidence to condlude that the mean step pulse of men was less than the mean step pulse of women the mean step pulse of women O B. Reject Ha, there is not sufficient evidence to condlude that the mean step pulse of men was less OC. Fail to reject Ho, there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean step pulse of men was less than the mean steg pulse of women O D.…
