QUESTION 20A treatment for anxiety is found to demonstrate a consistent reduction of anxiety sympotms by 2 points on a 50-point anxiety symptoms scale. Although patients overall do not report feeling much difference, the experiemnterfinds that the change in symptoms on the anxiety symptoms scale results in a p-value of less than .05. This is anexample ofA statitically significant effect that does not have clinical/practical significanceA clinically significant change which is supported by a statistically significant effectA correlational research designA placebo effect

Suppose that you were interested in investigating the effect of a drug that is to be used in the treatment of patients who have glaucoma in both eyes. A comparison between the mean reduction in eye pressure for this drug and for a standard treatment is desired. Both treatments are applied directly to the eye. (a) Describe a reasonable method of collecting data that would result in paired samples. Gather a number of volunteers who suffer from glaucoma in both eyes. Measure the pressure in each eye of each participant before the treatments begin. For each experimental subject, randomly assign the treatments to each participant. Once the patients have applied the treatments for a fixed time, measure again the pressures in all the eyes, and compare the mean reduction in pressure for the eyes that have received the new treatment with the mean reduction in pressure for those that have received the standard treatment. O Gather a number of volunteers who suffer from glaucoma in both eyes.…
Research indicates that there may be a relationship between caffeinated coffee consumption and risk of depression in women. Provided is data on the amount of caffeinated coffee consumed and whether the woman was diagnosed with clinical depression. Of interest is to see if there is evidence of an association between caffeinated coffee intake and clinical depression in women. Using the provided output, what is the pvalue and what are the results of the test? Caffeinated coffee Depression <1 cup/wk >=1 cup/day 2-3 cups/day 4+ cups/day Total Yes 670 1278 564 95 2607 No 11545 22573 11726 2288 48132 Total 12215 23851 12290 2383 50739 Pearson's Chi-squared testdata: coffeeX-squared = 19.472, df = 3, p-value = 0.0002184 A. pvalue=3 <= alpha(0.05), H0 is rejected.

A consumer advocacy group conducts a large study on car rental practices. Among other things, the group would like to do a statistical test on the mean monthly mileage,μ, of cars rented in the US this year. The consumer advocacy group has good reason to believe that the average monthly mileage for rental cars in the US this year is higher than last year's average, which was2700miles. The group plans to perform a statistical test on the value ofu. To do this, choose a random sample of miles driven per month and calculate that the sample mean is2835miles and the standard deviation is750miles. Use this information to complete the parts below. (to) What are the null hypothesesh and the alternative hypothesish, What should be used to perform the test? h :0 0 (b) (c) h :0 1 Assume that the group decides not to reject the null hypothesis. What kind of mistake could you be making? (Choose an option) Suppose the true average monthly mileage for rental cars in the US this year is2850. Fill in…
In a survey that included assessment of husband and wife heights, Hodges, Krech, & Crutchfield (1975) reported the following results. Treat the wife's height as the predictor (X) variable and the husband's height as the outcome (Y) variable. Based on these values, what is the raw score predictive equation? Group of answer choices Wife Height’ = 51.78 + .29*Wife height Husband Height’ = .29 + . 51.78*Wife height Wife Height’ = .29 + . 51.78*Husband height Husband Height’ = 51.78 + .29*Wife height

Suppose a psychologist used number of hours of sleep in the night before a quiz to predict the quiz score using simple linear regression. The mean number of hours of sleep is 6.28 and the SD is 2. The standardized coefficient (beta in SPSS) is 0.38. If the number of hours of sleep increases from 6.28 to 8.28, what is the increase in predicted quiz score in standard deviation?
Sociodemographic differences in lung cancer worry. Hahn (2017) evaluated sociodemographic differences in how people worry about lung cancer. Some of the differences observed across demographic of interest were between males and females [t[45]=0.69; higher mean worry among men], smokers and nonsmokers [t[45]=2.69; higher mean worry among smokers]. However, at least one of these results were not statistically significant. Use the information provided to state which t test or t test did not reach the .05 level of significance in this study. (a) Compute the proportion of variance using omega-squared. (b) Suppose the pooled sample standard deviation for this test is 0.74. Using this value, compute estimated Cohen's d.
A researcher is interested in the relationship between total student debt after graduating college and depression. In order to test the hypothesis that students with more debt are more depressed, the researcher conducts a cross-sectional study that inquires about indebtedness after graduation and asks participants to complete the geriatric depression scale (GDS) test to quantify their depression on a scale of 1-15, 15 being the most depressed. The following table should be considered a SRS of participants’ responses relative to the variables of interest. Indebtedness at Graduation ($) Performance on GDS (1-15) 75,438 8 89,653 9 112,653 11 109,563 10 56,863 6 A) Calculate basic descriptive statistics for your predictor and outcome variables. B) Perform a formal test addressing the correlation between your predictor and outcome variables. (Use alpha = 0.05). C) Interpret your results.
Arsenic is a compound that occurs naturally in very low concentrations. Arsenic blood concentrations in healthy individuals are Normally distributed with a mean of 3.2 mg/dl. Some areas of the United States have naturally elevated arsenic levels in the ground and water supplies. Researchers took a sample 20 water samples from a particular area and measured the arsenic levels in each of the 20 water samples. They want to determine if there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the arsenic level in that area is higher than 3.2 mg/dl. hypothesis test for one population mean (unknown population standard deviation) confidence interval estimate for one population mean (unknown population standard deviation) hypothesis test for population mean from paired differences confidence interval estimate for population mean from paired differences hypothesis test for difference in population means from two independent samples confidence interval estimate for difference in population means from two…

A researcher would like to evaluate the effect of a new reading program for second-grade students. For the past five years, a standardized test given at the end of second grade has produced a mean score of ? = 45. A sample of n = 25 students is placed in the new program and, at the end of the school year they obtain a mean test score of M = 51 with SS = 9600. Based on these data can the researcher conclude that the new program has a significant effect on reading scores. Use a two-tailed test with ? = .05. (a) Using symbols, state the hypotheses for this test.(b) Locate the critical region for ? = .05.(c) Calculate the t statistic for this sample.
