QuestionA correlation between college entrance exam grades and scholastic achievement was found to be -1.08. On the basis of this you would tell the university thatathe entrance exam is a good predictor of successthe exam is a poor predictor of successCstudents who do best on this exam will make the worst studentsthey should hire a new statisticianestudents are this school are underachievingQuestion 2,After several studies, Professor Smith concludes that there is a zero correlation between body weight and bad tempers. This means thataa person with a bad temper may be heavy or skinnyeveryone has a bad temperheavy people tend to have bad tempersno one has a bad tempereskinny people tend to have bad tempers

We have to answer questions based on correlation coefficient.

Carefully read the description of the following two studies (A and B). For each study answer the following questions: Should a correlation analysis or multiple regression be used to analyze the results. Describe the basis for your answer – why did you select this test. Study A Dr. Banner want to determine whether his patients’ age is a factor in compliance with dialysis. He hypothesizes that older patients will be less compliant with dialysis. In other words, he believes the older the patient the more dialysis appointment they miss. Study B Dr. Banner’s intern does not agree. She believes there are other factors, along with age, that influence compliance such as race anxiety and mistrust of health care, side effects of treatment and issues related to culture. She wants to know who much each of these factors contribute to non-compliance.
3. ACT scores are roughly Normal with mean 20.8 and standard deviation 4.8, and SAT scores are roughly Normal with mean 1026 and standard deviation 209. Some students take both. For those students, the correlation between the two scores is 0.72. a. What's the equation of the straight line that you'd use to predict ACT scores based on SAT scores? b. I got a 1300 on the SAT, and I'm planning to take the ACT. Predict what I might get, c. What's the equation of the straight line that you'd use to predict SAT scores based on ACT scores? d. My friend got a 27 on the ACT, and she's planning to take the SAT. Predict what she might get. e. How come you're predicting both that I'll do worse than her on the ACT and that she will do worse than me on the SAT? 4. Draw a simple random nlc of size 15 from the labels 40os01, 402.
What stats test should be used to solve the following? A positive psychologist compares whether levels of gratitude in a random sample of n = 50 students at her college (M = 40) differ from the mean of college students across the US (μ = 45). A sports psychologist tested the reaction time of 320 college athletes. She found their average reaction time in a controlled task to be .77 seconds (s = 21). She wondered if the college athletes had faster reactions times than college students on average, who typically reacted in 1.23 seconds. A school psychologist obtained a sample of 120 fourth-grade kids who engaged in remote learning only during the COVID-19 pandemic. She found their average anxiety score to be M = 168. He compared that mean to the average anxiety score of fourth-grade children before the pandemic, which was μ = 144, with a ?=12σ=12. Did the sample of kids engaged in remote learning have a significantly different level of anxiety?

If you look at the differences between the means, once with 10 participants and one mean with 20 participants. (same data set) One mean difference is very large, but non-significant and the other is very small, but came out significant. What could be the reason for this outcome? (My difference in means was with 10 participants: -1.1 and with 20 participants: -5.1)
A statistic teacher recorded the Math and Science test scores of twelve students from one section. Using 0.05 as the level of significance, is there a significant relationship between the test scores in Mathematics and Science? Student number Math Scores (X) Science Scores (Y) 1 18 20 2 16 18 3 11 12 4 15 17 5 15 15 6 11 14 7 11 12 8 13 14 9 8 10 10 9 13 11 13 12 12 7 9
This is two different samples though - younger students and older students. Paired samples T-test is for comparing the same group tested twice. Shouldn't the answer be correlation based on the us having two metric variables (age and number of complaints). We are testing whether, as age goes up, number of complaints also goes up, which you could see on a scatterplot using correlation?
Please let me know if I calculated relative risk correctly. Thank you for your assistance.
2. (MMC 6.43). The Survey of Study Habits and Attitudes (SSHA) is a psychological test that measures the motivation, attitude toward school, and study habits of students. Each score ranges from 0 to 200. The mean attitude score for U.S. college students is about 110, and the standard deviation is about 25. A teacher who suspects that older students have better attitudes toward school gives the SSHA to 25 students who are at least 30 years of age. Their mean score is = 118.3. a. Assuming that o = 25 for the population of older students, carry out a test of Họ: H = Ha:u > 110 Report the P-value of your test and state your conclusion clearly. = 110 b. What are the required assumptions in part (a)?
I need help finding the test statistic, p-value, and whether or not to reject the null hypothesis. Please explain each step as well as you can. Thank you very much!
