Twelve inmates in a particular prison took part in an anger management class. Before it began, the median score on an anger control assessment of the group was 42 (out of a maximum of 60). After the six month class, the participants scores on the same assessment were 35, 41, 40, 44, 57, 36, 39, 47, 58, 39, 42, 39. 1.

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…

Twenty-nine college students, identified as having a positive attitude about Mitt Romney as compared to Barack Obama in the 2012 presidential election, were asked to rate how trustworthy the face of Mitt Romney appeared, as represented in their mental image of Mitt Romney’s face. Ratings were on a scale of 0 to 7, with 0 being “not at all trustworthy” and 7 being “extremely trustworthy.” Here are the 29 ratings: 2.6 3.2 3.7 3.3 3.4 3.6 3.7 3.8 3.9 4.1 4.2 4.9 5.7 4.2 3.9 3.2 4.5 5.0 5.0 4.6 4.6 3.9 3.9 5.3 2.8 2.6 3.0 3.3 3.7 a 95% confidence interval for the mean rating. Is there significant evidence at the 5% level that the mean rating is greater than 3.5 (a neutral rating)?
A study was done to determine if food insecurity/hunger impacts psychological distress (this is fake data to make it simple, but it is based off of a 2020 study that examined the associations between food insecurity and psychological distress among older people in Ghana). Participants were broken into three groups based on their responses: no food insecurity, moderate food insecurity, and severe food insecurity. Psychological distress was measured on the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10), where scores range from 0 to 50. Enter data and test to determine if there is a significant difference between the 3 groups in psychological distress Food insecurity: Psychological distress scores (higher = more distress) No food insecurity 5 6 8 10 5 4 14 9 Moderate food insecurity 16 14 9 7 14 8 16 17 Severe food insecurity…
A statistics content developer at Aplia wanted to know whether study skills are related to memory quality. She invited student volunteers to perform an online memory task. The students saw a list of 60 words and were then asked to recognize a list of 10 words that were on the original list. Students were also asked to provide their GPAs. Consider the following data set, which was collected from student volunteers in 2009. The table gives the frequency for five intervals of scores on the number of correctly identified words. Use the dropdown menus to complete the table by filling in the missing values for the proportions and percentages. Score Interval f Proportion Percentage 9–10 29 0.19 19% 7–8 53 5–6 50 3–4 22 0.14 14% 1–2 1 0.01 1%
Duncan wants to collect all available text data within the company to determine which data he should include in his text analysis. He found many datasets but is unsure which can be included in text analytics. Which of the following is NOT an example of text data? A.Customer feedback on the restaurants (describing what they liked and didn’t like) collected in an online survey B.Yelp reviews for the restaurant, in which customers describe their experiences at the franchise locations C.The content of tweets posted on Twitter about the restaurant during a given week D.A dataset of all active Twitter users that follow the company, that includes demographic data about the customers such as their age and annual income
A researcher uses matched-subjects design to investigate whether single people with pets vary in their happiness level compared to singles without pets. A mood inventory survey is given to a group of 20- to 29-year-old non-pet owners and a similar age group of pet owners. The pet owners are matched one to one with the non-pet owners for income, number of close friendships, and general health. Is there a significant difference in the mood scores for non-pet owners versus pet owners. Test with a =.05 for two tails.
In a study examining the effect of humor on interpersonal attractions, McGee and Shevlin (2009) foundthat a man’s sense of humor had a significant effect onhow he was perceived by women. In the study, femalecollege students were given brief descriptions of a potential romantic partner and then rated the attractivenessof the male on a scale from 1 (low) to 7 (high). Thefictitious male was described positively as being single,ambitious, and having good job prospects. In one condition, the description also said that he had a great senseof humor. The results showed that the description wasrated significantly higher when “a sense of humor” wasincluded. To further examine this effect, a researcherselected a sample of n = 16 college males and askedthem to read a brief description of a female and thenrate the attractiveness of the woman in the description.The description had been used in previous research butwas modified by adding a statement describing a goodsense of humor. Based on the…
