The GHQ is a well-known instrument for measuring minor psychological distress. The scale asks whether the respondent has experienced a particular symptom or behavior recently. Higher scores are associated with worst mental health. Past research has demonstrated that being of lower socioeconomic status was also associated with poorer mental health. The data are below: Participant Financial Security GHQ 1 20 25 2 18 23 3 18 17 4 19 35 5 19 18 6 18 24 7 19 24 8 14 25 9 10 27 10 7 50 i just need help on the blanks in the picture thankyou
Lynn University wants to examine whether students display better academic performance in class versus online. They have collected GPAs of two different samples of students, a sample from classes that take place in-person and a sample from classes that take place online. The data set is below. They predict that in-class students perform better than online students. GPA's In Class GPA Online GPA 4.0 4.0 3.5 2.2 3.7 3.3 3.5 3.7 2.0 2.5 3.2 3.8 3.3 3.8 What type of t-test should we use for this research question? Group of answer choices a) One sample b) Independent samples c) Paired Samples

This data set contains the achievement test (English as a Second Language) results and some background data collected during experimental trial of a new ESL program. The study was one year in duration. Students were allocated to the experimental ESL program class and a regular program control class on a random basis. Vocabulary and grammar tests were administered to the students in both groups at the beginning and the end of the school year. Variables The dataset includes 24 cases and 7 variables: Student ID Group (1 - experimental, 2 - control, 9 - missing) Gender (1 - male, 2 - female, 9 - missing) Pre-test vocabulary scores (scores range from 0 - 25, 99 - missing) Pre-test grammar scores (scores range from 0 - 25, 99 - missing) Post-test vocabulary scores (scores range from 0 - 25, 99 - missing) Post-test grammar scores (scores range from 0 - 25, 99 - missing) (a) develop a research question that can be addressed with independent-samples t test (b) state the null and alternative…
Acne is a common skin disease that affects most adolescents and can continue into adulthood. A study compared the effectiveness of three acne treatments and a placebo, all in gel form, applied twice daily for 12 weeks. The study's 517 teenage volunteers were randomly assigned to one of the four treatments. Success was assessed as clear or almost clear skin at the end of the 12 week period. The results of the study can be seen in the table below. Using the appropriate statistical test, determine if there is significant evidence that the four treatments perform differently. If so, how do they compare.
Two points in the unit interval [0, 1] were chosen randomly. What is the probability that the distance between them is less then 1/4?
“Bullying,” according to noted expert Dan Olweus, “poisons the educational environment and affects the learning of every child.” Suppose you are interested in the emotional well-being not only of the victims but also of 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 bully-victims using an 18-item, 5-point anxiety scale. The group of 84 bullies scored an average of 40.1 with a sample standard deviation of 3.8 on the anxiety scale. The group of 67 bully-victims scored an average of 46.8 with a sample standard deviation of 11.6 on the same scale. Suppose you intend to conduct a hypothesis test on the difference in population means. In preparation, you identify the sample of bullies as sample 1 and the sample of bully-victims as sample 2. Organize the provided data by completing the following table:
I want to assess the effects of diet (control diet, high-sugar diet, high-fat diet) and exercise (no voluntary running wheel, voluntary running wheel) on time spent in a target quadrant (more time indicates better memory). I record the percent time spent in a target quadrant for 30 mice and obtain the following data: Control Diet High-sugar Diet High-fat diet No running wheel 15, 28, 29, 30, 25 24, 20, 30, 32, 20 19, 23, 22, 23, 25 Running wheel 30, 34, 35, 44, 32 21, 22, 28, 26, 29 30, 32, 28, 19, 26 What type of factorial design is this?

A scientist is studying the effect of a new type of exercise program on cardiovascular health. The scientist randomly assigns individuals to either the exercise program or a control group. The scientist wants to determine if the exercise program has a statistically significant effect on cardiovascular health. The scientist monitors cardiovascular health by measuring the blood pressure of each individual. The type of program the individual experienced is which of the following?

Hotel Managers' Personalities. Successful hotel managers must have personality characteristics often thought of as feminine (such as "compassionate") as well as those often thought of as masculine (such as "forceful"). The Bern Sex-Role Inventory (BSRI) is a personality test that gives separate ratings for female and male stereotypes, both on a scale of 1 to 7. A sample of 148 male general managers of three-star and four-star hotels had mean BSRI femininity score y = 5.29 The mean score for the general male population is μ = 5.19. Do hotel managers, on the average, differ significantly in femininity score from men in general? Assume that the standard deviation of scores in the population of all male hotel managers is the same as the σ = 0.78 for the adult male population. (a) State null and alternative hypotheses in terms of the mean femininity score μ for male hotel managers. (b) Find the z test statistic. (c) What is the P-value for your z? What do you conclude about male hotel…
