Question 3 According to a Kaiser Family Foundation survey, children aged 8 to 18 years in the United States spend an average of 190 minutes per day watching television. A recent random sample of 4 such children showed the following results: 200, 210, 230, 220 (in minutes) At the 5% level of significance, can you conclude that the current mean time spent watching television per day by children in this age group differs from 190 minutes? a)Step 1: State the null and alternative hypotheses. b)Step 2: Write down the appropriate test statistic (formula) , but first check assumptions c) Step 3 :Write down the rejection region of your test.

A graduate student is interested in how viewing different types of scenes affects working memory. For his study, he selects a random sample of 36 adults. The subjects complete a series of working memory tests before and after walking in an urban setting. Before the walk, the mean score on the test of working memory was 9.1. After the walk, the mean score was 1.4 higher. The graduate student has no presupposed assumptions about how viewing different types of scenes affects working memory, so he formulates the null and alternative hypotheses as: H00 : μDD = 0 H11 : μDD ≠ 0 Assume that the data satisfy all of the required assumptions for a repeated-measures t test. The graduate student calculates the following statistics for his hypothesis test: Mean difference (MDD) 1.4 Estimated population standard deviation of the differences (s) 1.6 Estimated standard error of the mean differences (sMDMD) 0.2667 Degrees of freedom (df) 35 The t statistic 5.25 The critical values of t…
3) Two hundred hypertensive patients are assigned to a diet program. Blood pressure is measured on each patient both before the program starts and 3 months after the start of the program. The correct statistical procedure to determine whether or not the mean blood pressure change (after-before) changed significantly different in the patients is: a. Paired t-test b. 2 sample unpaired t-test c. Fisher's exact test (an exact version of the chi-squared test for 2x2 contingency tables) d. None of the above
According to a study conducted by a statistical organization, the proportion of people who are satisfied with the way things are going in their lives is 0.84. Suppose that a random sample of 100 people is obtained. Complete parts (a) through (e) below. (a) Suppose the random sample of 100 people is asked, "Are you satisfied with the way things are going in your life?" Is the response to this question qualitative or quantitative? Explain. O A. The response is quantitative because the responses can be classified based on the characteristic of being satisfied or not. O B. The response is quantitative because the number of people satisfied can be counted. O C. The response is qualitative because the number of people satisfied can be counted. OD. The response is qualitative because the responses can be classified based on the characteristic of being satisfied or not. (b) Explain why the sample proportion, p, is a random variable. What is the source of the variability? O A. The sample…
An article compared five different methods for teaching descriptive statistics. The five methods were traditional lecture and discussion, programmed textbook instruction, programmed text with lectures computer instruction, and computer instruction with lectures. 60 students were randomly assigned, 12 to each method. After completing the course, students took a 1-hour exam. We are interested in finding out if the average test scores are different for the different teaching methods. The p-value of the test is 0.0372. What is the conclusion of the test if the level of significance is αα=0.10? There is enough evidence to conclude that all five group means are significantly different from each other. There is not enough evidence to conclude that all five group means are sigificantly different from one another. There is enough evidence to conclude that at least one group mean is significantly different from others. There is not enough evidence to conclude that at least one…
A school had a lot of problems with student absences and wanted to try a intervention program to see if it encouraged students to come to school more often. As a trial, 26 students were split into two equal size groups. Group 1 would get the new intervention and Group 2 got no intervention. The mean- number of absences was calculated after one month for each group, as shown in the table below. What inference can be made about the results? Group 1 Group 2 3 5 3 1 3 2 3 4 1 3 2 1 2 3 3 4 2 5 1 3 1 6 4 2 1 2 Mean: 2.2 Mean: 3.2 Frequency200 Simulated Group Mean Differences Since the simulation shows FEW CASES OR Many Cases. where a mean difference of ___ or less occurred when the groups were re-randomized, it can be inferred that the mean difference observed in the study was VERY POSSIBLY OR VERY UNLIKELY due to the random assignment of participants into groups, so the results…
Monthly salary computations from two different clothing companies yielded the following data: n=7, ?=9,130$, ?=386$; ?= ?, ?=8,840$, ?=212$. At the level of significance 0.05, can we conclude that the mean monthly salary from the two companie is not the same?
The researchers hypothesised that people who receive an audiovisual presentation will have a different mean level of recall of ad information as those who receive only the visual aspects of the ad. What significance test should the researchers use for testing their hypothesis?
According to a sociologist's research on U.S. residents' habits regarding religious faith, 38% of U.S. residents attend a religious service (any denomination) at least once per month. Suppose 310 U.S. residents are sampled. (Give results accurate to at least 4 decimal places.) a. Of the 310 people sampled, 132 respond that they attend a religious service at least once per month. What is the sample statistic p? p= 0.4258 b. Under the assumption that the sociologist's claim that 38% of U.S. residents attend a religious service at least once per month is valid, what is the probability that the survey in part (a) would result in a p that is at least as high as the one found? c. Under the assumption that the sociologist's claim that 38% of U.S. residents attend a religious service at least once per month is valid, what is the probability that the survey in part (a) would result in a p that is between 37% and 40%?
Question #2 A diet guide claims that you will get 120 calories in a serving of vanilla yogurt. Consumer Reports tested 14 brands of vanilla yogurt and found the following numbers of calories per serving: 160 200 220 230 120 180 140 130 170 190 80 120 100 170 Test the claim that the mean number of calories per serving of vanilla yogurt is 120. Use a significance level of 0.05. Show all the steps of your hypothesis test including The p-value: Initial conclusion Final conclusion about the original claim
