14. Testing multiple linear restrictions with the F testSuppose a data set of 350 observations (N=350) was analyzed using OLS to examine the factors that influence the salaries of professional baseballplayers. The regression results are as follows, with standard errors in parentheses:log(salary) = 12.1 + 0.08 years + 0.02 gamesyr + 0.0007 bavg + 0.02 hrunsyr + 0.012 rbisyr(0.25)(0.025)(0.004)(0.002)(0.015)(0.008)wheresalary= total salary in 2003years = years in the leaguebavg = career batting averagegamesyr = average games played per yearhrunsyr = home runs per yearrbisyr= runs batted in per yearR = 0.611SSR = 199.32 Suppose you would like to test the null hypothesis that career batting average, home runs per year, and runs batted in per year have no effect on thesalaries of baseball players, once the effects of years of experience and games played per year have been controlled for.This null hypothesis includes which of the following exclusion restrictions?

Fill in the Blank Question 3 If one or more of the relevant predictor variables are excluded, then the resulting OLS estimators are biased. The extent of the bias depends on the degree of the between the included and the excluded predictor variables.

Bighorn sheep are beautiful wild animals found throughout the western United States. Let x be the age of a bighorn sheep (in years), and let y be the mortality rate (percent that die) for this age group. For example, x = 1, y = 14 means that 14% of the bighorn sheep between 1 and 2 years old died. A random sample of Arizona bighorn sheep gave the following information: x 1 2 3 4 5 y 15.8 17.3 14.4 19.6 20.0 Σx = 15; Σy = 87.1; Σx2 = 55; Σy2 = 1,540.45; Σxy = 272 (a) Find x, y, b, and the equation of the least-squares line.

What are the independent and dependent variables for the following examples? What statistical test would you use for each of the following scenarios? What would you set your alpha-level at? Sally wants to examine whether there is a difference in muscular strength between participants who engaged in an 8-week resistance training program and participants who engaged in an 8-week endurance training program. The participants only took part in one of the 8-week programs, not both. What test would she use to determine whether the differences in muscular strength are significant? Why?
A researcher is conducting a test to see if handedness (right or left) affects the speed at which people perform a particular task. The researcher only knows the order in which the contestants finished. When the data are summarized (with R for right-handed and L for left-handed) the order of finishing (fastest to slowest) was: R, R, R, R, L, R, L, R, L, L Is there statistically significant evidence of an effect of handedness on the speed? Test statistic: The name of the statistical table, degrees of freedom (if appropriate), and the numerical value of the critical value for this test: P-value: Circle an appropriate conclusion: • There is significant evidence that left-handed contestants will finish the task faster. • We cannot reject the hypothesis that handedness has no effect on the time to finish the task. • There is significant evidence that right-handed contestants will finish the task faster.
A researcher selects a sample and administers a treatment for anxiety to the individuals in the sample. If the sample is used for a hypothesis test, what does the alternative hypothesis (H1) put forth about the treatment? A. The treatment has no effect on anxiety. B. The treatment adds a constant to each anxiety score. C. The treatment multiplies each anxiety score by a constant. D. The treatment has an effect on anxiety.

USE THE 8-STEP HYPOTHESIS TESTING Refer to the study by Carter et al. [A-9], who investigated the effect of age at onset of bipolar disorder on the course of the illness. One of the variables studied was subjects' family history. Table 3.4.1 shows the frequency of a family history of mood disorders in the two groups of interest: early age at onset (18 years or younger) and later age at onset (later than 18 years). Family History of Mood Disorders Early ≤ 18(E) 28 19 41 53 Later > 18 (L) 35 38 44 60 141 Total 63 57 85 113 Negative (A) Bipolar disorder (B) Unipolar (C) Unipolar and bipolar (D) Total 177 318 Source: Tasha D. Carter, Emanuela Mundo, Sagar V. Parkh, and James L. Kennedy, "Early Age at Onset as a Risk Factor for Poor Outcome of Bipolar Disorder," Journal of Psychiatric Research, 37 (2003), 297-303. Can we conclude on the basis of these data that subjects 18 or younger differ from subjects older than 18 with respect to family histories of mood disorders? Let a = .05.
