Concept explainers
In 1950, a research team digging near Folsom, New Mexico, found charred bison bones along with some leaf-shaped projectile points (called the "Folsom points") that had been made by a Paleo-Indian hunting culture. It was clear from the evidence that the bison had been cooked and eaten by the makers of the points, so that carbon-14 dating of the bones made it possible for the researchers to determine when the hunters roamed North America. Tests showed that the bones contained between

- The Hill of Tara is located in south-central Meath, not far from Dublin, Ireland. Tara is of great cultural and archaeological importance, since it is by legend the seat of the ancient high kings of Ireland. For more information, see Tara: An Archaeological Survey, by Conor Newman, Royal Irish Academy, Dublin.Magnetic surveying is one technique used by archaeologists to determine anomalies arising from variations in magnetic susceptibility. Unusual changes in magnetic susceptibility might (or might not) indicate an important archaeological discovery. Let x be a random variable that represents a magnetic susceptibility (MS) reading for a randomly chosen site on the Hill of Tara. A random sample of 120 sites gave the readings shown in the table below.arrow_forwardThe ratio of the lengths of the second and the fourth fingers, denoted 2D:4D, is an indicator of the level of prenatal testosterone. It is known that higher prenatal testosterone levels are associated with a lower 2D:4D value. Since testosterone levels are known to be related to behavioural traits, it has been conjectured that certain types of aggressive and dominant behaviours may be associated with lower 2D:4D values. van der Meij et al. (2012) conducted a study that investigated the possible relationship between 2D:4D and so-called "sociable" and "aggressive" dominance. For the study, 84 male students completed two questionnaires, measuring sociable and aggressive dominance respectively, on which high scores related to increased aggression. After some adjustments, a score between 1 and 6 was recorded for each subject on each questionnaire. The participants' hands were scanned and measurements taken, on which a 2D:4D measure could be recorded per subject by averaging the ratio for…arrow_forwardCan people tell the difference between a female nose and a male nose? This research question was examined in an article. Eight Caucasian males and eight Caucasian females posed for nose photos. The article states that none of the volunteers wore nose studs or had prominent nasal hair. Each person placed a black Lycra tube over his or her head in such a way that only the nose protruded through a hole in the material. Photos were then taken from three different angles: front view, three-quarter view, and profile. These photos were shown to a sample of undergraduate students. Each student in the sample was shown one of the nose photos and asked whether it was a photo of a male or a female. The response was then classified as either correct or incorrect. The following table was constructed using summary values reported in the article. Sex ID View Front Profile Three-Quarter Correct 29 26 23 Incorrect 11 14 17 Is there evidence that the proportion of correct sex…arrow_forward
- Zhou and Vohs (2009) published a study showing that handling money reduces the perception of pain. In the experiment, a group of college students was told that they were participating in a manual dexterity study. Half of the students were given a stack of money to count and the other half got a stack of blank pieces of paper. After the counting task, the participants were asked to dip their hands into bowls of very hot water (122° F) and rate how uncomfortable it was. The following data show ratings of pain similar to the results obtained in the study.
