Daily anxiety was measured on a scale from 1 (not at all anxious) to 5 (very anxious) in a random sample of 2000 city dwellers from across the U.S. They found that M = 4.13, 95% CIs [4.06, 4.20].How would you interpret these results? What conclusions would you draw about the precision of the point estimate? What statistical decision would have been made in this scenario if the researchers employed Null Hypothesis Significance Testing instead of the New Stats?
In analyzing the consumption of cottage cheese by members of various occupational groups, the United Dairy Industry Association found that 326 of 837 professionals seldom or never ate cottage cheese, versus 220 of 489 white-collar workers and 522 of 1243 blue-collar workers (Sheet 53). Assuming independent samples, use the 0.03 level in testing the null hypothesis that the population proportions could be the same for the three occupational groups.

31% of all pygmy softshell toises have stripes on their shells. A herpetologist in Cititon collects a sample of 28 pygmy softshell tortoises and finds that 8 of them have stripes on their shells. Is there enough evidence to conclude, at a significance of alpha=0.05, that the proportion of pygmy softshell tortoises in Cititon with stripes on their shells is less than 31%? What is the claim? What is the null hypothesis? What is the alternative hypothesis? What is the test statistic? What is/are the critical value(s)? Do we reject the null hypothesis? What conclusion do we draw? What is the P-value for the problem above?
