Types of Bias

Statistics is the study of data collection, organization, analysis, interpretation, and presentation. Statistical bias is a characteristic of a statistical technique or its findings in which the expected value deviates from the actual root quantitative parameter being estimated. According to the actual definition of bias, it refers to the tendency of a statistic to overestimate or underestimate a parameter.

A certain mall in the city has a population of 10,000 employees distributed in three different branches. If you would like to determine the sample size, what technique can be applied?
2. In a population it is estimated that 20% have a desired trait of interest for the researcher. The researcher wants to know how many people on average he has to draw from a population to get 2 people with the trait. Use rows 20-24 of the Random Number Table to carry out the simulation. Explain clearly how you set up the problem and report your findings. Answer:

A car dealer is interested in comparing the average gas mileages of four different car models. The dealer believes that the average gas mileage of a particular car will vary depending on the person who is driving the car due to different driving styles. Because of this, he decides to use a randomized block design. He randomly selects five drivers and asks them to drive each of the cars. He then determines the average gas mileage for each car and each driver. Can the dealer conclude that there is a significant difference in average gas mileages of the four car models? The results of the study are as follows. Average Gas Mileage Driver Car A Car B Car C Car D Driver 1 3232 2222 3030 3939 Driver 2 2121 3939 3838 3737 Driver 3 2626 3131 3232 3939 Driver 4 3838 4040 2323 3434 Driver 5 3131 2929 2121 2222 Copy Data ANOVA Source of Variation SSSS dfdf MSMS Rows 174.2000174.2000 44 43.550043.5500 Columns 91.600091.6000 33 30.533330.5333 Error 607.4000607.4000 1212…
An adventure company runs two obstacle courses, Fundash and Coolsprint, with similar designs. Since Fundash was built on rougher terrain, the designer of the courses suspects that the mean completion time of Fundash is greater than the mean completion time of Coolsprint. To test this, she selects 205 Fundash runners and 260 Coolsprint runners. (Consider these as independent random samples of the Fundash and Coolspring runners.) The 205 Fundash runners complete the course with a mean time of 77.6 minutes and a standard deviation of 8.2 minutes. The 260 individuals complete Coolsprint with a mean time of 76.0 minutes and a standard deviation of 7.7 minutes. Assume that the population standard deviations of the completion times can be estimated to be the sample standard deviations, since the samples that are used to compute them are quite large. At the 0.05 level of significance, is there enough evidence to support the claim that the mean completion time, u,, of Fundash is greater than…

An article summarizes a report of law enforcement agencies regarding the use of social media to screen applicants for employment. The report was based on a survey of 734 law enforcement agencies. One question on the survey asked if the agency routinely reviewed applicants' social media activity during background checks. For purposes of this exercise, suppose that the 734 agencies were selected at random, and that you want to use the survey data to decide if there is convincing evidence that more than 25% of law enforcement agencies review applicants' social media activity as part of routine background checks. The sampling distribution of p̂ describes the behavior of p̂ when random samples are selected from a particular population. Describe the shape, center, and spread of the sampling distribution of p̂ for samples of size 734 if the null hypothesis H0: p = 0.25 is true. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)
