Sign Test and Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test What is a major advantage of the Wilcoxon signed-ranks test over the sign test when analyzing data consisting of matched pairs?
The principal of an elementary school wanted to see if there are differences in the abilities of first, second, and third graders to render a three-dimensional image into a two- dimensional drawing (as judged by trained coders). All students were attending the same school, and data were collected during the same semester.
What test I use?
-Independent samples t test
-ANOVA
-Paired samples t test
-Correlation
Standardized test scores For his Statistics class experi-ment, researcher J. Gilbert decided to study how parents’
income affects children’s performance on standardizedtests like the SAT. He proposed to collect informationfrom a random sample of test takers and examine therelationship between parental income and SAT score.a) Is this an experiment? If not, what kind of study is it?b) If there is relationship between parental incomeand SAT score, why can’t we conclude that differencesin score are caused by differences in parentalincome?

The table below shows the memory test scores from some elderly residents, tested first when they were 70 years old and again when they were 80 years old. The researcher wants to know if there is a significant decline in memory functions from age 70 to age 80 based on this sample. In other words, it is hypothesized that the memory score at age 80 is significantly lower than the memory score at age 70. So the null and alternative hypotheses should be directional. The alpha level was set at α = .01 for a one-tailed hypothesis test.
