This is a SAS question. You want to randomly assign 48 subjects into two groups (Placebo and Drug). Write a DATA step to do this in such a way as to ensure there are exactly 24 subjects in each group. Can you think of how to do this so that in each group of eight subjects, there are exactly four Placebo and four Drug assignments? (Hint: Create six blocks of eight subjects each.) I know how to do the first part, it is the second part that is hard for me to figure out. Thank you!
I need to see if I am doing these problems correctly. I am more of a handwritten person so if you can show me how to write these out I would appreciate it for our teacher only shows us how to use a calculator. Nationally, patients who go to the emergency room wait an average of 7 hours to be admitted into the hospital. Do patients at rural hospitals have a lower waiting time? The 15 randomly selected patients who went to the emergency room at rural hospitals waited an average of 5.9 hours to be admitted into the hospital. The standard deviation for these 15 patients was 1.4 hours. What can be concluded at the the αα = 0.05 level of significance level of significance? For this study, we should use The null and alternative hypotheses would be: H0:H0: H1:H1: The test statistic = (please show your answer to 3 decimal places.) The p-value = (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) The p-value is αα Based on this, we should…
A recent study investigated whether cell phone users experience separation anxiety when they cannot access their phones. Because blood pressure increases with anxiety, the researchers used systolic blood pressure as an operational measure of anxiety. The experiment involved a random sample of cell phone users that were divided into two groups at random. One group of participants completed a survey while their phones were locked in a cabinet in a separate room and the other group of participants completed the same survey while their phones were nearby. (The survey questions were unrelated to cell phone use.) At the end of the survey, theresearchers measured each participant's systolic blood pressure. The same experiment was conducted in Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver, and St. Zotique. The blood pressure data needed is below. Use these data to answer the following question: compute r2 for the data collected in st. zotique. Please answer to 5 decimal places. Cell Phone (CP) No Cell Phone…
To investigate how people communicate over the internet, a researcher had subjects write messages in an online forum. She split her sample of 76 participants into young adults and older adults based on their age. She then compared how many emojis and emoticons the young adults used in their messages compared to the older adults. What is the best test to analyze the results of this study?

A local government official observes an increase in the number of individuals with cardiovascular and obesity problems in his barangay. In order to improve the health conditions of his constituents, he aims to promote an easy and cheap way to reduce weight. It is known that obesity results in risk of having illnesses like diabetes and heart problems. He encouraged his constituents to participate in his "Dance for Life" project every weekend for three months. To know if the program is effective in reducing weight, he randomly selected 12 participants from the group who completed the program. The weight loss data, in kilograms, of the 12 randomly selected participants after completing the program, are 0.5, 0.7, 0.9, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 2.0, 2.3, 2.4, 2.7, 3.0. It is known that the weight loss of those who have completed the dance program follows a normal distribution with variance of 3.24 ??2. a. Construct and interpret a 90% confidence interval for the true mean weight loss of the…
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
a school wants to see if a tutoring service is helpful for its students. they devised a test similar to the SAT to have the students take, first spliting them into two groups; the first group received the tutoring sessions and the second group did not receive the sessions. The resulting scores after one semester are shown below. Group 1 Group 2 2563 2505 2810 2673 2643 2498 2690 2576 2702 2640 2594 2473 2602 2538 2809 2586 2769 2432 2513 2674 b) What is the test statistic? c) What is the P-value associated with the test statistic?

Basketball players can take shots worth 3 points, 2 points, or 1 point. A scout is assessing two players- Tabitha and Lauren-who play for different teams in different leagues. The scout wonders if they have similar or different shot selections. They take a random sample of Tabitha's games and a separate random sample of Lauren's games. They tally how many of each type of shot the players attempted in those games. Here is a summary and the results of a chi-square test: Chi-square test: Shot vs. player Tabitha Lauren 3-point 8 12 Expected 10.34 9.66 2-point 40 37 Expected 39.83 37.17 1-point 12 Expected 9.83 9.17 x² = 2.097, DF = 2, P-value = 0.350 %3D Assume that all conditions for inference were met. At the a = 0.05 significance level, what is the most appropriate conclusion to draw from this test? Choose 1 answer: This is convincing evidence that the distribution of shot type differs between Tabitha and Lauren.

Recent research suggests that the amount of time that parents spend talking about numbers can have a big impact on the mathematical development of their children (Levine, Suriyakham, Rowe, Huttenlocher, and Gunderson, 2010). In the study, the researchers visited the children's homes between the ages of 14 and 30 months and recorded the amount of "number talk" they heard from the children's parents. The researchers then tested the children's knowledge of the meaning of numbers at 46 months. The following data are similar to the results obtained in the study.

An educational psychologist is interested in whether using a child’s own name in a story affected attention span while reading. Six children were randomly assigned to read a story under ordinary conditions (using common and generic names). Five other children read versions of the same story, but with each child’s ownname substituted for one of the children in the story. The researcher measured the amount of time (in minutes) each child spent reading the story. The results are shown in the following table. Does including the child’s namemake any difference in attention span? Test the hypothesis at an alpha set to .05, following these steps: a) write the null and alternative hypotheses; b) determine the critical value(s); c) draw the comparison distribution with rejection region(s) shaded; d)use the correct formula to compute the test statistic; e) state the statistical decision; f) state a brief conclusion.
