Suppose a hypothesis test was performed with a level of significance of 0.05. Then if the null hypothesis is actually true, then there is a 5% chance that the researcher will end up rejecting the null hypothesis in error. True False
When a null hypothesis is rejected, the test is said to be "statistically significant." If aresearcher reports a statistically significant test at the 1% significance level, can we concludethat it would have been significant at the 5% level? Clearly explain your answer.
A USA Today article claims that the proportion of people who believe global warming is a serious issue is 0.63, but given the number of people you've talked to about this same issue, you believe it is less than 0.63. The hypotheses for this test are Null Hypothesis: p ≥ 0.63, Alternative Hypothesis: p < 0.63. If you randomly sample 20 people and 12 of them believe that global warming is a serious issue, what is your test statistic and p-value? Question 3 options: 1) Test Statistic: 0.278, P-Value: 0.391 2) Test Statistic: 0.278, P-Value: 0.609 3) Test Statistic: -0.278, P-Value: 0.782 4) Test Statistic: -0.278, P-Value: 0.391 5) Test Statistic: -0.278, P-Value: 0.609
If you use a 0.05 level of significance in a two-tail hypothesis test, what decision will you make if ZSTAT = -0.76? If you use a 0.05 level of significance in a two-tail hypothesis test, what decision will you make if ZSTAT = +2.21? If you use a 0.10 level of significance in a two-tail hypothesis test, what is your decision rule for rejecting a null hypothesis that the population mean equals 500 if you use the Z test? If you use a 0.01 level of significance in a two-tail hypothesis test, what is your decision rule for rejecting H0 : m = 12.5 if you use the Z test? What is the p-value if, in a two-tail hypothesis test, ZSTAT = +2.00? What is the p-value if, in a two-tail hypothesis test, ZSTAT = -1.38?
A newsletter publisher believes that less than 50% of their readers own a laptop. For marketing purposes, a potential advertiser wants to confirm this claim. After performing a test at the 0.05 level of significance, the advertiser decides to reject the null hypothesis. What is the conclusion regarding the publisher's claim?
A newsletter publisher believes that over 33% of their readers own a laptop. For marketing purposes, a potential advertiser wants to confirm this claim. After performing a test at the 0.02 level of significance, the advertiser decides to reject the null hypothesis. What is the conclusion regarding the publisher's claim?
You are a research assistant at a zoo. The question of your study is "Has the proportion of baby zebras born in zoos decreased from 10%?". Your supervisor asks that you run a hypothesis test using an significance level of 0.05. Form the study you obtain a z-score of 1.89. Do you reject the null hypothesis and why?
Why can't a researcher ever "accept the null" or "accept the research hypothesis"?
