Chapter 7.3, Problem 18E
18.Suppose that a Bayesian spam filter is trained on a set of 500 spam messages and 200 messages that are not spam, The word “exciting'' appears in 40 spam messages and in 25 messages that are not spam. Would an incoming message be rejected as spam if it contains the word “exciting1and the threshold for rejecting spam is 0.9?

1.) We have an excel file called Game_Times which shows
-
many variables associated with 3 days of baseball games in
the 2015 season. Suppose we want to print the date in the
longhand month, day year, format (i.e. January 1, 2001)
and teams that played in the longest game in these three
days. Use SAS to do this. Copy and paste your code and
answer. (Hint: Use PROC IMPORT, the format
WORDDATE.14, and PROC SORT.)
15. A marketing firm is hired to conduct research into the
listening habits of drivers in u large urban arca. On
the first day, 121 drivers were surveyed: 26 listen to
FM radio while driving, 4 of whom listen to only FM.
Eight more listen to FM and AM only, while 4 listen
to FM and satellite only. There were 6 that listen to
only AM, 22 that listen to only satellite, and 69 that
listen to at least one of the three.
(a) Are there more people who listen to satellite
radio, or more who listen to none of the three
types in the survey?
(b) How many more listen to AM radio than FM?
(c) How many listen to some form of radio, but
not AM?

Cialdini (2003) investigated how both social norms impacted people's behaviors. Using his work as a means to decrease screen time (injunctive norm), student researchers manipulated a comparison group (U.S. and Global reference groups) and an injunctive norm (descriptive norm inconsistent with injunctive people continuing high use of screen time versus descriptive norm consistent with injunctive = people trying to decrease screen time). After reading about screen time and what various people's screentime behaviors were, participants indicated their intention for future screen time. Did the social norms or comparison groups impact future intended screen time? Fully test the research question (p<.01) and indicate effect sizes.

- 4. A random sample of 415 potential voters was interviewed 3 weeks before the start of a state-wide campaign for governor; 223 of the 415 said they favored the new candidate over the incumbent. However, the new candidate made several unfortunate remarks one week before the election. Subse- quently, a new random sample of 630 potential voters showed that 317 voters favored the new candi- date.

Specifically, this psychologist thinks that introverts are more creative than extraverts. The researcher gives a personality test to a group of 16 university students and then separates them based on the assessment results into 2 groups: the extraverts and the introverts. The participants are then asked to write a short story which is rated on creativity by a well-known author. The creativity scores range from 0 to 20 on an interval scale, where higher scores indicate greater creativity. The results are shown in the table below. Using the 0.05 alpha level, are introverts more creative than extroverts? Use all of the steps of hypothesis testing.
