The paper “Sociochemosensory and Emotional
One of the three shirts had been worn by the subject’s roommate. The subject was asked to identify the shirt worn by her roommate. This process was then repeated with another three shirts, and the number of times out of the two trials that the subject correctly identified the shirt worn by her roommate was recorded. The resulting data is given in the accompanying table.
![Chapter 12.1, Problem 6E, The paper Sociochemosensory and Emotional Functions (Psychological Science [2009]: 11181124)](http://dev-ingestion-image-output.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com/9781305115347/Chapter-12/images/15347-12.1-6e-question-digital_image_001.png)
a. Can a person identify her roommate by smell? If not, the data from the experiment should be consistent with what we would have expected to see if subjects were just guessing on each trial. That is, we would expect that the probability of selecting the correct shirt would be 1/3 on each of the two trials.
Calculate the proportions of the time we would expect to see 0, 1, and 2 correct identifications if subjects are just guessing. (Hint: 0 correct identifications occurs if the first trial is incorrect and the second trial is incorrect.)
b. Use the three proportions computed in Part (a) to carry out a test to determine if the numbers of correct identifications by the students in this study are significantly different from what would have been expected by guessing. Use α = .05. (Note: One of the expected counts is just a bit less than 5. For purposes of this exercise, assume that it is OK to proceed with a goodness-of-fit test.)
