- A researcher conducts an experiment to test whether memory changes with age. They recruited 24 participants separated into four age groups. The groups differ according to the age of subjects. In group one, all participants are 30 years old. Group 2, 40 years old. Group 3, 50 years old. And group 4, 60 years old. Assume that the participants are all in good health and that the groups are matched on other important variables such as years of education, IQ, gender, motivation, and so on. Each participant is shown a series of nonsense syllables ( a meaningless combination of three letters such as Daf or FUM ) at a rate of one syllable every four seconds. The series is shown twice, after which participants are asked to write down as many of the syllables as they can remember. Below is number of syllables remembered by each participant. 30 years old 14 13 15 17 12 10 40 years old 12 15 16 11 12 18 50 years old 17 14 14 9 13 15 60 years old 13 10 7 8 6 9 what is the alternative and null…A statistics student at Pleasantville High School (PHS) looked at seat belt use by drivers. Customers were observed driving into a local convenience store. After the drivers left their cars, the student asked each driver several questions about seat belt use. In all, 80% of the drivers said that they always use seat belts. However, the student observed that only 61.5% of these same drivers were actually wearing a seat belt when they pulled into the store parking lot. Which of the following best explains the difference in the two percentages? (A) The difference is due to sampling variability. We shouldn't expect the results of a sample to match the truth about the population every time. (B) The difference is due to response bias. Drivers who don't use seat belts are likely to lie and say they do use seat belts. (C) The difference is due to undercoverage bias. The study included only customers of the convenience store and did not include all drivers in the population. (D) The difference…A report included data from a study in which 789 people in a representative sample of college students age 18 to 24 were asked how they perceive their money management skills. Possible responses were excellent, good, average, not very good, and poor. Each student in the sample was also classified by sex, resulting in the data in the table. Perception of Money Management Skills Not Very Good Excellent Good Average Poor Male 102 138 88 17 8 Female 81 193 136 22 4 Is there convincing evidence that there is an association between sex and how students perceive their money management skills? Test the relevant hypotheses using a significance level of a = 0.05. State the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses. O Ho: The proportions falling into each of the four perceptions of money management skills are the same for both sexes. H: The proportions falling into each of the four perceptions of money management skills are not the same for both sexes. O Ho: There is an association between sex…
- Fast-food restaurants may be able to decrease yearly expenses simply by decreasing the size of the paper napkins they provide to patrons. Papel Paper Products is considering pitching the smaller-napkin idea to potential restaurant clients. To determine the receptiveness of different restaurants to the idea, Papel surveyed 400 fast-food establishments chosen at random, and looked at the data according to two variables: type of fast-food restaurant ("burger/sandwich", "Chinese/Mexican", or "other") and attitude toward the smaller-napkin idea ("receptive" or "not receptive.") The data are summarized in the contingency table below. Each of the 6 cells of the table contains three numbers: the first number is the observed cell frequency (f); the second number is the expected cell frequency (f) under the assumption that the two variables type of fast-food restaurant and attitude toward the smaller-napkin idea are not associated; and the third number is the following value. (fo-ƒE)² JE…Section 3.1, question 3A recent study indicates that people tend to select video game avatars with characteristics like those of their creators (Bélisle & Bodur, 2010). Participants who had created avatars for a virtual community game completed a questionnaire about their personalities. An independent group of viewers examined the avatars and recorded their impressions of the avatars. One personality characteristic considered was introverted/extroverted. The following frequency distribution of personalities for participants and the avatars they created. Is there a significant relationship between the personalities of the participants and the personalities of their avatars? Test with α = .05.
- Medical researchers followed 6272 Swedish men for 30 years to see if there was any association between the amount of fish in their diet and prostate cancer. (“Fatty Fish Consumption and Risk of Prostate Cancer,” Lancet, June 2001). A summary of the data is given in the table below. Fish Consumption No Prostate Cancers Prostate Cancers Never/Seldom 110 14 Small part of diet 2420 201 Moderate part of diet 2769 209 Large part of diet 507 42 A) If a patient is randomly selected, what is the probability that he/she had prostate cancer given that fish was never or seldom a part of the diet? Round your answer to three decimal places and include the leading zero. B) If a patient is randomly selected, what is the probability that s/he ate fish as a large part of their diet given that they had prostate cancer. Round your answer to two decimal places and include the leading zero.Students at a major university believe they can save money buying textbooks online rather than at the local bookstores. In order to test this theory, they randomly sampled 25 textbooks on the shelves of the local bookstores. The students then found the "best" available price for the same textbooks via online retailers. The prices for the textbooks are listed in the following table. Based on the data, is it less expensive for the students to purchase textbooks from the online retailers than from local bookstores? Use a = 0.01. Let prices at local bookstores represent Population 1 and prices at online retailers represent Population 2.

Here is a two-way table that classifies these subjects by whether or not they had arthritis of the hip or knee by their mid-fifties: Elite Non-elite Did not play Arthritis No arthritis 10 24 61 206 548 (a)What proportion of the people in this study has arthritis of the hip or knee? (b)Among the former elite soccer players, what proportion has arthritis of the hip or knee? (c)Among the former non-elite soccer players, what proportion has arthritis of the hip or knee? (d)Among the people who did not play soccer, what proportion has arthritis of the hip or knee? (e)Based on this study, can you conclude that there is an association between the playing of soccer and arthritis? Justify your answer.

Six children were randomly assigned to read a story under ordinary conditions (using common and generic names). Five other children read versions of the same story, but with each child’s ownname substituted for one of the children in the story. The researcher measured the amount of time (in minutes) each child spent reading the story. The results are shown in the following table. Does including the child’s namemake any difference in attention span? Test the hypothesis at an alpha set to .05, following these steps: a) write the null and alternative hypotheses; b) determine the critical value(s); c) draw the comparison distribution with rejection region(s) shaded; d)use the correct formula to compute the test statistic; e) state the statistical decision; f) state a brief conclusion.A graphing calculator is recommended.The following table lists the number of pages in four different types of magazines.
