Addiction Medicine. The report “Addiction Medicine: Closing the Gap between Science and Practice” from the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University reveals that addiction treatment is neglected by the medical system in the United States. It shows, in particular, that 16% of Americans have the disease of addiction and that 90% of them receive no form of treatment. Determine the probability that a randomly selected American has the disease of addiction and receives no form of treatment. Interpret your answer in terms of percentages.
In looking over customer data for your local ice cream shop, you estimate the following probabilities about what customers order: P(vanilla) = 0.4 P(sundae) = 0.4 P(vanilla and sundae) = 0.1 What is the probability that a customer order vanilla ice cream given they ordered a sundae? Estimate your answer to the first decimal place.
Virtually any process can be improved by use of statistics, including the law. A much publicized case that involved a debate about probability was the Collins case, which began in 1964. An incident of purse snatching in the Los Angeles area led to the arrest of Michael and Janet Collins. At their trial, an "expert" presented the probabilities listed in table below on characteristics possessed by a couple seen running from the crime scene: Characteristics Probability Man with beard 1/10 Blond woman 1/4 1/10 Yellow car Woman with ponytail Man with moustache Interracial couple 1/10 1/3 1/1000 The chance that a couple had all these characteristics together is 1 in 12 million. Because the Collinses had these characteristics, the Collinses must be guilty. Do yo see any problem with this line of reasoning? Hint: The question of interest is not "what is the probability of finding a couple with these characteristics?" because one such couple has been found (the Collinses), the question is "what…

A different I/O psychologist wants to know if there is a difference in worker evaluations depending if the employee is a male or female. A group of managers were recruited and each rated both 15 men and 15 women employee evaluations on a scale of 0-10. The ratings on the worker evaluations were recorded for each manager. Which statistical test would be best to determine if there is a significant difference between groups? one-sample t-test dependent samples t-test ANOVA
