The current standardized version, the MMPI-2, is used by trained professionals to assist in identifying personality structure and psychopathology. A forensic psychologist is interested in whether she can identify potential serial killers by their MMPI profiles. She is particularly interested in the Paranoia and Infrequency scales of the MMPI. She interviews 12 people who have already been identified as serial killers.

- Because statistical software plays such an important role in modern statistical applications, many studies have encouraged the use of technology in statistics courses. The Guidelines for the Assessment and Instruction in Statistics Education (GAISE) (Aliaga et al., 2005) project was funded by the American Statistical Association to examine needs for college level statistics courses. One of the six recommendations from GAISE is the use of technology for developing conceptual understanding and analyzing data. A survey was sent to students at 100 different universities across the United States to access the relationship between ease of learning the statistical software program SAS and a student's currently level of SAS proficiency. The results of the survey are published in Jackson et al., 2011, in the International Mathematical Forum journal and are shown below.

- A data analyst working for the NZ Transport Agency wanted to evaluate whether a new road marking system is effective in lowering the number of crashes on New Zealand roads. They identified which roads were scheduled to receive the new marking system this year and measured the total number of crashes in the month before and in the month after the new system was implemented. These totals were compared to crash data gathered at the same time from similar locations that were scheduled to receive the new marking system next year. What type of experimental design is this?
