- You are interested in understanding the impact of Student Teacher Ratios (STR) on Test Scores (i.e., STR is your variable of interest and Test Scores are your outcome variable). Let’s pretend you have 2 models and you must only pick 1. The models along with mock results are in the table below. The coefficients are presented with standard errors in parenthesis. Further assume that the STR coefficient in Model 1 is less biased than the STR coefficient in Model 2. But as you can see, the STR coefficient in Model 2 is more precisely estimated (it’s statistically significant) than the coefficient in Model 1. Which model (Model 1 or Model 2) do you prefer and why. X1 and X2 are different control variables. You do not need to know what they are in order to answer this question – you only need to know that they are different.

Execute a hypothesis test as to whether there is a relationship between gender and drinking at alpha=0.05 USING CHI-SQUARE.

- A teacher giving a true/false test wants to make sure her students do better than they would if they were simply guessing, so she performs a hypothesis test. Her null hypothesis is that a student will get 50% of the questions on the exam correct. The alternative hypothesis is that the student is not guessing and should get more than 50% in the long run. Н,р-0.50 Н:р>0.50 Give a possible p-value for data that are not statistically significant at the 10% level.arrow_forwardA researcher wanted to examine the effectiveness of Vitamin C on the number of colds a year. The researcher obtained a sample of adults and asked to take Vitamin C daily. The average number of colds a year among adults is known to have the average of μ = 3On the basis of this sample, can the researcher conclude that Vitamin C has an effect on the number of colds a year? Use alpha =.05 two-tailed test. Colds: 2,2,2,1,3,3,1,2 Conducta two-tailed test with alpha = .05. Q1: State your null and research hypotheses using complete sentences Q2: What is the df? Q3: What are the cut-off points Q4: What is the standard deviation? You can just include the answer for the mean, SS, and the standard deviation. No need to type your computation.

Out of a random sample of 100 blooms, 67 yield marketable strawberries. Specifically, he wants to test know if there is sufficient evidence that more than three-fourths of all blooms grown with this pest control method end up as marketable strawberries. The value of the statistic for this test is z=-1.85. Which of the following is the is the approximate p-value to the nearest thousandth for this test?arrow_forward29) Two variables are measured on a random sample of n = 23.

- To examine the relationship between alcohol consumption and birth weight, a researcher selects a sample of n = 20 pregnant rats and mixes alcohol with their food for 2 weeks before the pups are born. One newborn pup is randomly selected from each subject’s litter and the average with weight for the n = 20 pups is recorded. It is known that the average birth weight for regular rats (without exposure to alcohol) is μ = 5.6 grams. What type of test would you use to test the hypothesis that alcohol consumption during pregnancy reduces birth weights? Would you use a one-tailed or two-tailed test? What would be an appropriate measure of effect size to report?arrow_forwardX” denote the number of children ever born to a woman, and let “Y” denote years ofeducation for the woman.

Are these likely to be correlated with level of education?arrow_forwardThe equation Y= α+ βx+ε describes a population regression line. Which of the statements regarding this equation is true.
