- Bullying,” according to noted expert Dan Olweus, “poisons the educational environment and affects the learning of every child.” Bullying and victimization are evident as early as preschool, with the problem peaking in middle school. Suppose you are interested in the emotional well-being of not only the victims but also bystanders, bullies, and those who bully but who are also victims (bully-victims). You decide to measure anxiety in a group of bullies and a group of victims using an 18-item, 5-point anxiety scale. Assume scores on the anxiety scale are normally distributed and that the variances of the anxiety scores are the same among bullies and victims. The group of 23 bullies scored an average of 40.1 with a sample standard deviation of 10 on the anxiety scale. The group of 28 victims scored an average of 46.8 with a sample standard deviation of 11 on the same scale. You do not have any presupposed assumptions about whether bullies or victims will be more anxious, so you formulate…Researchers wish to study the effect of daily brain teasers on a person's intelligence. The researchers randomly choose 20 students from their local college campus. Day one of the test, every student is given an IQ test. The students are then randomly divided into Group A and Group B (10 students each). Group A is given daily brain teasers, while Group B were not instructed to participate in anything outside their normal routine. At the end of a 30 day period, each member of the group takes an IQ test. The students are aware of what group they are in, but the researchers have no idea until the results are given. The test given to Group A would be considered the Control Treatment Variable PlaceboEthical Behavior of Business Students at Bayview University During the global recession of 2008and 2009, there were many accusations of unethical behavior by Wall Street executives, financial managers, and other corporate officers. At that time, an article appeared that suggested that part of the reason for such unethical business behavior may stem from the fact that cheating has become more prevalent among business students (Chronicle of Higher Education, February 10, 2009). The article reported that 56% of business students admitted to cheating at some time during their academic career as compared to 47% of nonbusiness students. Cheating has been a concern of the dean of the College of Business at Bayview University for several years. Some faculty members in the college believe that cheating is more widespread at Bayview than at other universities, while other faculty members think that cheating is not a major problem in the college. To resolve some of these issues, the dean…
- A sociologist studying New York City ethnic groups wants to determine if there is a difference in income for immigrants from four different countries during their first year in the city. She obtained the data in the following table from a random sample of immigrants from these countries (incomes in thousands of dollars). Use a 0.05 level of significance to test the claim that there is no difference in the earnings of immigrants from the four different countries. Country I Country II Country III Country IV 12.3 8.3 20.4 17.3 9.1 17.2 16.5 8.7 10.9 19.2 22.8 14.2 8.8 10.2 5.5 21.4 16.1 19.2 19.3 (b) Find SSTOT, SSBET, and SSW and check that SSTOT = SSBET + SSW.

A developmental psychologist would like to determine how much fine motor skill changes for children from age 3 to age 5. He takes a random sample of 9 three-year old children and gives each a manual dexterity test that measures fine motor skill. He tests these same children one and two years later, when they are each four- and five-years old. Higher scores on this test indicate better fine motor skills. Is there a significant difference in the motor skills at these ages? Test with an α = 0.01 and show ANOVA SPSS output.Based on information from Harper's Index, 37 out of a random sample of 100 adult Americans who did not attend college believe in extraterrestrials. However, out of a random sample of 100 adult Americans who did attend college, 47 claim that they believe in extraterrestrials. Does this indicate that the proportion of people who attend college and who believe in extraterrestrials is higher than the proportion who did not attend college? (a) State the hypotheses in plain language. (b) Fill in the table below, then enter this table in the left side of the Rossman-Chance applet. No college College Total Believe in ETs 84 Did not believe in ETs 116 Total 100 100 200 (c) Compute the point estimate for the difference in the proportion believing in extraterrestrials between those not attending college and those attending college.

- Snoqualmie” is a name shared by a waterfall and a tribe of Native Americans. In a study of the cultural importance of the waterfall, two groups of the Snoqualmie tribe were randomly surveyed. One group consisted of Snoqualmie members living less than 25 miles from the waterfall. Another group consisted of Snoqualmie members living more than 25 miles from the waterfall. The researchers asked each member to rate the cultural importance of the waterfall as low, medium, or high. Data from the study are presented in the following table. Members Living More Than 25 Miles from the Waterfall Members Living Less Than 25 Miles from the Waterfall Total Low 25 17 42 Medium 8 21 29 High 5 12 17 Total 38 50 88 If the distributions of ratings are the same for those Snoqualmie members living less than 25 miles from the waterfall and those living more than 25 miles from the waterfall, which of the following is equal to the expected count of members living less than 25 miles from the…The personality characteristics of business leaders (e.g., CEOS) are related to the operations of the businesses that they lead (Oreg & Berson, 2018). Traits like openness to experience are related to positive financial outcomes and other traits are related to negative financial outcomes for their businesses. Suppose that a board of directors is interested in evaluating the personality of their leadership. Among a sample of n = 16 managers, the sample mean of the openness to experiences dimension of personality was M = 4.50. Assuming that u = 4.24 and o = 1.05 (Cobb-Clark & Schurer, 2012), use a two-tailed hypothesis test with a = .05 to test the hypothesis that this company's business leaders' openness to experience is different from the population.

In the study phase, 12 participants made judgments about words. In one block of trials (the visual condition) they indicated whether the words were written in upper case or lower case; in another block of trials (the auditory condition) they indicated whether the words contained an "ee" sound; in another block of trials (the meaning condition) they indicated whether the meaning of the words was pleasant or unpleasant. There were 12 words in each block. After completing the study phase, participants were asked to write down all the words they could remember. Here are the data: Mean Visual 3.5 Auditory 4.5 Meaning 6.0 Standard Deviation 1.5 1.6 1.9 Compared to the within-subjects design, the between-subjects design (select all that apply) Oa.

- 1. A developmental psychologist would also like to determine how much fine motor skill improves for children from age 3 to age 4 but is worried about practice effects. She takes a random sample of 9 three-year old children and a second sample of 9 four-year olds and measures fine motor skill in each using the same test described above. Her data are provided below. Three Year Olds: 40, 35, 38, 39, 40, 50, 40, 38, 42 Four Year Olds: 35, 36, 39, 29, 35, 34, 33, 34, 35 a. Is there a significant difference in the motor skills from age three to four? Test with an α = 0.01. b. What type of error is possible based on the outcome? c. Calculate and interpret the effect size. d. What is the mean motor skill score for the age three children? What is the mean motor skill score for the age four children?6. A study of report writing by psychologist is conducted. A scale that measures the intelligibility of psychologist English is devised. This scale, called an "index of confusion" is devised so that low scores indicate high readability.
