To study whether the students at a university are more or less satisfied with the current food service compared to the previous food service, a sample of 95 current students is taken and finds that 37 are satisfied with the current food service. A similar survey was taken for the previous food service in which 89 students surveyed found that 42 were satisfied with the previous food service. When testing the hypothesis (at the 5% level of significance) a higher percentage of students were satisfied with the previous food service than with the current food service, what is the test statistic? (please round your answer to 2 decimal places)

In a study examining the effect of humor on interpersonal attractions, McGee and Shevlin (2009) found that a man's sense of humor had significant effect on how he was perceieved by woman. In the study, female college students were given brief descriptions of a po tential romantic partner and then rated the attractiveness of the male on a scale from 1 (low) to 7 (high). The fictitious male was described positively as being single , ambitious, and having good job prospects. In one dition, the description also said that he had a great sense of humor. The results showed that the description was rated significantly higher when "a sense of humor" was included. To further examine this effect, a researcher selected a sample of n = 16colle college males and asked them to read a brief description of a female and then rate the attractiveness of the woman in the description . The description had been used in previous research but was modified by adding a statement describing a good sense of humor…
You are a sales manager for a grocery store, and you want to see if the introduction of a new sales promotion will increase the sales in your store. To do so, you decided to create an experiment by giving a small sample of customers the promotion before expanding it to a larger customer base. You gave 18 people the promotion, and also observed the sales of 27 people who did not get the promotion as a control group. You found those who received the promotion to have an average monthly sales of $456.60, with a sample standard deviation of $52.23. You found those who did not receive the promotion had an average monthly sales of $361.46, with a sample standard deviation of $56.11. Suppose you want to use hypothesis testing (two-sample test) to investigate if the promotion has increased the sales of your store. Using the order promotion no promotion in your hypothesis test, what is the value of the test statistic for your analysis? Note: 1- Only round your final answer. Round your final…
st is 22. Oishi and Shigehiro (2010) report that people who move from home to home frequently as children tend to have lower than average levels of well-being as adults. To further examine this relationship, a psychologist obtains a sample of n = 12 young adults who each experienced 5 or more different homes before they were 16 years old. These participants were given a standardized well-being questionnaire for which the general population has a

A recent study looked at the relationship between condom use and the spread of AIDS, by following heterosexual couples in which one partner was infected with HIV. The couples were classified by their condom use. Of the 98 couples who always used condoms, 4 partners became infected with HIV. Of the 67 couples who did not always use condoms, 11 partners became infected. Test whether the proportions of partners who became infected with HIV are different for each group, using a 5% level of significance. Give each of the following: 1) the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses; 2) the appropriate test; 3) the decision rule; 4) the calculation of the test statistic; and 5) your conclusion including a comparison to alpha or the critical value.

The table below summarizes data from a survey of a sample of women. Using a 0.05 significance level, and assuming that the sample sizes of 800 men and 400 women are predetermined, test the claim that the proportions of agree/disagree responses are the same for subjects interviewed by men and the subjects interviewed by women. Does it appear that the gender of the interviewer affected the responses of women?

A study is conducted to investigate whether customer satisfaction is greater among computer companies that offer tech support versus those that do not offer tech support. A random sample of 50 customers are selected from among those that purchased computers that offer tech support. A separate random sample of 40 customers are selected from among those that purchased computers that do not offer tech support. The study found that the mean satisfaction rating was significantly greater among customers that purchased computers that offer tech support. Which of the following is the best description of this study? (A) An experiment using a completely randomized design. (B) An experiment using a randomized block design. (C) An experiment using a matched pairs design. (D) An observational study using a simple random sample. (E) An observational study using a stratified sample.
Computer-mediated communication (CMC) is a form of interaction that heavily involves technology (e.g., instant messaging, email). A study was conducted to compare relational intimacy in people interacting via CMC to people meeting face-to-face (FTF). Participants were 48 undergraduate students, of which half were randomly assigned to the CMC group and half assigned to the FTF group. The variable of interest, relational intimacy score, was measured (on a 7-point scale) for each participant after each of three different meeting sessions. Summary statistics for the first meeting session are given here. The researchers hypothesized that, after the first meeting, the mean relational intimacy score for participants in the CMC group would be lower than the mean relational intimacy score for participants in the FTF group. Test the researchers’ hypothesis using α = .10. CMC FTF Number…

A study of the career plans of young women and men sent questionnaires to 722 students of class at one University. One question asked which major within the business program the student had chosen. With data we test a statement: Does the data suggest that there is a relationship between the gender of students and their choice of major? We calculated the p-value and it is 0,0127 and the level of significance is 0,05. The conclusion to the test is: a. there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the choice of major and the gender of the student are not independent of each other. b. there is insufficient evidence to conclude that more females prefer administration than males c. there is insufficient evidence to conclude that the choice of major and the gender of the student are not independent of each other. d. there is sufficient evidence to conclude that students find economics very hard.
