A local group claims that police issue at least 60 speeding tickets a day in their area. To prove their point, they randomly select two weeks. Their research yields the number of tickets issued for each day. The data are listed below. At α = 0.05, test the group’s claim. Interpret your results. 70 48 41 68 69 55 70 57 60 83 32 60 72 58

In a neighborhood of 150 homes, a survey of 45 homes found that the average number of pets was 2.1 (SD=0.75). The city-wide average for neighborhoods is 2.5 pets. Find the critical value of t and the value of t we obtain (or observe) presuming a 2-tailed test. Also, calculate the effect size.
A veterinary nutritionist developed a diet for overweight dogs. The total volume of food consumed remains the same, but one-half of the dog food is replaced with a low-calorie “filler” such as canned green beans. Six overweight dogs were randomly selected from her practice and were put on this program. Their initial weights were recorded, and they were weighed again after 4 weeks. The results of the experiment are shown below. At α=0.05, can it be concluded that the dogs significantly lost weight?
Q1. An anthropologist wants to collect data to determine whether the two different cultural groups that occupy an isolated Pacific Island grow to be different heights. The results of his samples of the heights of adult females are as follows Do these samples constitute enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis that the heights of the two groups the same? Set alpha to .05.
Setting the alpha value at α = .10 instead of α = .05 increases the chances of: A. making a Type I Error B. making both a Type I and Type II Error C. decreasing power D. making a Type II Error
An Electronic store is being questioned by the Head Manager. The Head boss is concerned about this location as it does not have a high enough average of customers per hour. They wouldn’t be concerned if the average is greater than 15 customers per hour. Test the claim to an alpha=0.05 level, that the shop sees on average more than 15 customers per hour. H0: p = 15 H1: p > 15 point estimate: 15.68421 P- Value: 0.18538 Decision? A written statement on whether the Head boss has any reason to be concerned or not.
Setting a smaller alpha level means: A) No answer text provided. B)The acceptance region becomes smaller C) The value of the critical region becomes more positive/negative D) The p value should be large enough to reject the null hypothesis
In single-sample, upper-tail test hypothesis test, if the researcher changes the alpha level from .05 to .10 then which statement is most true? a) a. the consequences of committing an alpha error are likely severe, all else held constant in the experiment b) b. the RR will comprise a larger area under the curve as a result, all else held constant c) c. the RR will comprise a smaller area under the curve as a result, all else held constant d) d. this image would accurately depict this change
Compute Cohen’s d to measure the size of the effect. A) cohen's d= B) indicate whether this effect was small, medium, or large:
The average effect size in social psychology is around d = 0.21. Conventionally, a sample over 30individuals is considered 'large.' If we are running an experiment for which we will perform atwo-tailed test t-test and we have 30 individuals in each of the two conditions, what is ourpredicted power? (use the standard alpha)
Which of these experiments will have the LEAST power? Group of answer choices Experiment with sample size of n = 20 and a large effect size (Cohen’s d = 0.45) Experiment with sample size of n = 20 and a small effect size (Cohen’s d = 0.05) Experiment with sample size of n = 40 and a large effect size (Cohen’s d = 0.45) Experiment with sample size of n = 40 and a small effect size (Cohen’s d = 0.05)
