Mandrake Falls High School is experimenting with a weekend course in laboratory techniques. Of the 200 students enrolled in
lab classes at Mandrake, only 78 have been able to take the techniques course. Mandrake is interested in evaluating the
course's effectiveness in propagating safety in the laboratories.
During regular lab classes, lab instructors have recorded harmful lab incidents: accidents, misuse of lab equipment, etc. The
school is looking at the data and examining two variables: laboratory performance ("involved in no incident", "involved in
exactly one incident", or "involved in 2+ incidents") and status regarding lab techniques course ("took the techniques
course" or "didn't take the techniques course").
The contingency table below gives a summary of the data that have been gathered so far. In each of the 6 cells of the table
are three numbers: the first number is the observed cell frequency (f); the second number is the expected cell frequency
(E) under the assumption…
A researcher conducts an independent-measures study examining how the brain chemical serotonin is related to aggression. One sample of rats serves as a control group and receives a placebo that does not affect normal levels of serotonin. A second sample of rats receives a drug that lowers brain levels of serotonin. Then the researcher tests the animals by recording the number of aggressive responses each of the rats display. The data are as follows.
Control Low Serotonin
n = 15 n = 20
M = 18 M = 22
SS = 172.5 SS = 135.0
a. What research design was used to answer this question?
b. What was the scale of measurement for the dependent variable?
c. What was the scale of measurement for the independent variable?

- Absenteeism: Absenteeism can be a serious employment problem. It is estimated that absenteeism reduces potential output by more than 10%. Two economists launched a research project to learn more about the problem. They randomly selected 100 organizations to participate in a 1-year study. For each organization, they recorded the average number of days absent per employee and several variables thought to affect absenteeism. Management’s goal here is to analyze the data and determine which factors may be helpful in predicting absenteeism. Perform a two-sample t-test analysis to determine if mean absenteeism is different between organizations which have a good Union management and those that do not.

- Read through this scenario and look at the data that was collected. State the null and all possible research hypotheses. Review the results below (I used SPSS) and answer the questions that follow. Scenario: A researcher wants to see if gender and/or income affect the total amount of help given to a stranger who is sitting on the side of a busy road with a sign asking for help. The independent variables are gender, income, and the interaction of gender and income. The dependent variable is total help. He wants to know if one or both factors – or the interaction of the two - affect the total amount of help offered. Because he is analyzing two independent variables (gender and income), he used a factorial ANOVA. His results show the main effect of each of the independent variables on the dependent variable (total help) and the interaction effect. The researcher is using a 95% confidence interval which means that he wants to be at least 95% sure that his independent variables…arrow_forwardRead through this scenario and look at the data that was collected.

His patients are first weighed and then randomly assigned to olfactory therapy, dance therapy, or a control condition. At the end of the three weeks, the amount of weight lost is recorded. The results indicate no significant difference in the amount of weight lost between the three conditions.
