Professor Wonka is interested in whether candy influences children's mood. One group of children is recruited to be part of an experimental group, and another group of children is recruited to be part of the control group. Participants in the experimental group each eat 1 candy bar and then report on their mood on a self-report questionnaire. Children in the control condition do not eat anything before reporting on their mood. Here are the data from the two groups: Experimental (candy) group 15 18.3 94.6 n= M= SS= Control group 17 14.5 112.8 Calculate the effect size in terms of the n= M= SS= proportion of variance accounted for (r-).

Recent research indicates that the effectiveness of antidepressant medication is directly related to the severity of the depression (Khan, Brodhead, Kolts & Brown, 2005). Based on pretreatment depression scores, patients were divided into four groups based on their level of depression. After receiving the antidepressant medication, depression scores were measured again and the amount of improvement was recorded for each patient. The following data are similar to the results of the study. LowModerate HighModerate ModeratelySevere Severe 0.5 2.7 3.4 2.6 1.7 0.8 2.6 5.3 3.3 1.9 1.1 4 2.6 1.4 4.3 2.6 1.4 2.9 3.6 4.6 3.1 3.2 4.8 1.4 From this table, conduct an one-way ANOVA.

Betsy is interested in predicting how many 75-year-olds will develop Alzheimer’s disease and is using as predictors level of education and general physical health graded on a scale from 1 to 10. But she is interested in using other predictor variables as well. Answer the following questions:What criteria should she use in the selection of other predictors? Why?Name two other predictors that you think might be related to the development of Alzheimer’s disease.With the four predictor variables—level of education and general physical health and the two new ones that you named in (b)—draw out what the model of the regression equation would look like.
A new over-the-counter medicine to treat a sore throat is to be tested for effectiveness. The makers of the medicine take two random samples of 25 individuals showing symptoms of a sore throat. Group 1 receives the new medicine and Group 2 receives a placebo. After a few days on the medicine, each group is interviewed and asked how they would rate their comfort level 1-10 (1 being the most uncomfortable and 10 being no discomfort at all). The results are below. Find the 95% confidence interval in the difference of the mean comfort level. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the new medicine is effective? Assume the data is normally distributed with unequal variances. (Round answers to 4 decimal places) Make sure you put the 0 in front of the decimal. Average Group 1 = 5.84, SD Group 1 = 2.211334, n1 = 25 Average Group 2 = 3.96, SD Group 2 = 2.35372, n2 = 25
An experimenter investigated the effects of blue light exposure on people’s sleep quality. Researchers get 50 people and randomly assign 25 people to be exposed to blue light for 20 min. before bed and the other 25 people to have no blue light exposure 25 min. before bed. Each participant is sent to bed at 10pm and woken up at 7am the next morning. When all participants are woken up, they must fill out a sleep quality questionnaire. The scores seen below represent participants’ sleep quality ratings where higher numbers indicate better sleep quality. Does the blue light exposure negatively impact sleep quality?

In 1998, there was a major ice storm in Maine. Researchers wanted to know whether there was an association between generator location (inside or outside) and CO poisoning after an ice storm. Results from their case-control study are summarized in the table below (cases are observations that have experienced the CO poisoning, controls are observations that have not experienced the CO poisoning): What type of table is this? Name at least 2 tests you can perform to investigate the association between generator location and CO poisoning after an ice storm. Calculate the odds ratio and risk ratio based on this table. Which one is more appropriate for this type of study design?

As an admissions counselor, I am interested in understanding whether or not there is a difference in stress levels not only between different majors but also between different classes (Freshman v. Seniors). I gather the following data from students from three majors (Psychology, Chemistry, and Engineering), that are in their freshmen or senior years and ask them about their stress levels (scale of 1-10, with lower numbers meaning less stress). Using the data below, test whether there are effects of class, major, or an interaction between them at an alpha of 0.05.

We often describe our emotional reaction to social rejection as “pain.” A clever study asked whether social rejection causes activity in areas of the brain that are known to be activated by physical pain. If it does, we really do experience social and physical pain in similar ways. Subjects were first included and then deliberately excluded from a social activity while changes in brain activity were measured. After each activity, the subjects filled out questionnaires that assessed how excluded they felt. Here are data for 13 subjects. The explanatory variable is “social distress” measured by each subject’s questionnaire score after exclusion relative to the score after inclusion. (So values greater than 1 show the degree of distress caused by exclusion.) The response variable is change in activity in a region of the brain that is activated by physical pain. create a scatterplot
Suppose the marketing research firm would like to examine if the social networking site that a person primarily uses is influenced by his or her age. In a randomly drawn sample, 369 social network users were asked which site they primarily visited. At the 0.05 level of significance, can we conclude that the two variables are related? These data are presented in the following table along with each person’s age group: Age (Years) Facebook Twitter LinkedIn 10-17 7 22 0 18-34 44 54 25 35-54 40 38 44 55 and older 26 38 31 a.

Are very young infants more likely to imitate actions that are modeled by a person or simulated by an object? This question was the basis of a research study. One action examined was mouth opening. This action was modeled repeatedly by either a person or a doll, and the number of times that the infant imitated the behavior was recorded. Twenty-seven infants participated, with 12 exposed to a human model and 15 exposed to the doll. Summary values are shown below. Person Model Doll Model x 5.11 3.47 s 1.60 1.30 Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean number of imitations is higher for infants who watch a human model than for infants who watch a doll? Test the relevant hypotheses using a 0.01 significance level. (Use ?Person − ?Doll.) Find the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) t = Find the df.
