The researchers cited in the previous problem also examined the weight/salary relationship for men and found a positive relationship, suggesting that we have very different standards for men than for women (Judge & Cable, 2010). The following are data similar to those obtained for a sample of male profession- als. Again, weight relative to height is coded in five categories from 1 = thinnest to 5 = heaviest. Income is recorded as thousands earned annually. a. Calculate the Pearson correlation for these data. b. Is the correlation statistically significant? Use a two-tailed test with a = = .05. Weight (X) Income (Y) 4 151 88 3 52 73 1 49 3 92 1 56 143

People tend to evaluate the quality of their lives to others around them. In a demonstration of this phenomenon, Frieswijk, Buunk, Steverink, and Slaets (2004) conducted interviews with frail elderly people. In the interview, each person was compared with fictitious others who were worse off. After the interviews, the elderly people reported more satisfaction with their own lives. Following are hypothetical data similar to those obtained in the research study. The scores are measures of a life-satisfaction scale for a sample of n=9 elderly people who completed the interview. Assume that the average score on this scale is u=20. What is your computed t? Use a one-tailed test with a=0.05. The life satisfaction scores are 18, 23, 24, 22, 19, 27, 23, 26, 25.

ch 11 end. 7: In a bumper test, three test vehicles of each of three types of autos were crashed into a barrier at 5 mph, and the resulting damage was estimated. Crashes were from three angles: head-on, slanted, and rear-end. The results are shown below. Research questions: Is the mean repair cost affected by crash type and/or vehicle type? Are the observed effects (if any) large enough to be of practical importance (as opposed to statistical significance)?
1. A professor is interested in how attendance is related to grades her class. She goes through her records and determines each student’s final average and the number of days absent. The scores for her sample are given in the table below. a. Construct a scatter plot of the relationship between final averages and the number of days absent. b. Is there a significant relationship between final averages and the number of days absent? Calculate and interpret the correlation and report it in proper APA format. c. Compute r2 for the data. What percent of the variability in final averages is accounted for by the number days absent?
You volunteer some of your spare time to your local fire department and have been asked by an assistant chief to analyze data on firefighters who applied for promotion. The assistant chief wants to ensure that gender bias is not a concern in the promotion of firefighters. Shown below is data for 50 firefighters who applied for promotion and the results of a chi-square analysis of the data. Male Female Promoted 13 22 Not Promoted 10 5 Chi-Square Statistic 3.6845 P value 0.054919 What factors should the assistant chief consider in determining the presence of gender bias in firefighter promotion? Is the promotional status of recently promoted firefighters independent of their gender?
