Tourism is extremely important to the economy of Florida. Hotel occupancy is an often-reported measure of visitor volume and visitor activity (Orlando Sentinel, May 19, 2018). Hotel occupancy data
for February in two consecutive years are as follows.
Let P₁ = population proportion of rooms occupied for current year
P2 = population proportion of rooms occupied for previous year
Occupied Rooms
Total Rooms

When compared to an independent groups design, a repeated measures design has several advantages. Which of the following statements does NOT describe an advantage of a repeated measure design? O Because a repeated measures design sometimes measures the treatment effect two or more times, the researcher can track and analyze the changes in the effect over time. O To achieve the same power, a repeated measures design requires fewer experimental units than an independent groups design. O A repeated measures design is more likely to detect the different responses to the various treatments. O In a repeated measures design, response to the various treatments can increase due to practice or decrease due to fatigue with each subsequent treatment.arrow_forwardJust looking for part Carrow_forward
