To evaluate the effect of a treatment, one sample of n=8 is obtained from a population with population mean: u=40 and the treatment is administered to the individuals in the sample. After treatment, the sample mean is found to be M=35. 1. If the sample variance is s^2=32, are the data sufficient to conclude that the treatment has a significant effect using a two-tailed test with alpha=.05? (show work please, and state both experimental and statistical hypotheses, and state your decision regarding the H0. (all 4 steps of hypothesis test) 2a. If the sample variance is s^2=72, are the data sufficient to conclude that the treatment has a significant effect using a two-tailed test with alpha=.05?

If a researcher obtains a sample mean of M= 54, from a population with u = 46. With a given alpha, which combination of factors is most likely to result in rejecting the null hypothesis?
To evaluate the effect of a treatment, a sample ofn = 8 is obtained from a population with a mean of m =50, and the treatment is administered to the individuals in the sample. After treatment, the sample mean is found to be M = 55. Assuming that the sample variance is s2 =32, use a two-tailed hypothesis test with a = .05 to determine whether the treatment effect is significant and compute both Cohen’s d and r2 to measure effect size. Assuming that the sample variance is s2 = 72, repeat the test and compute both measures of effect size. Comparing your answers for parts a and b, how does the variability of the scores in the sample influence the outcome of a hypothesis test and measures of effect size?
Suppose that a researcher decides that he MUST obtain a Type 1 error level of no more than 0.01 in order to reject the null hypothesis. After analyzing his data he finds that the results are significant at p = 0.05 but not at p = 0.01. If he is not able to change the maximum allowed Type 1 error level, then the researcher should Question 5 options: retain the null hypothesis because 0.05 is greater than 0.01. retain the null hypothesis because 0.05 is merely sampling error. reject the null hypothesis because 0.05 is close to 0.01. reject the null hypothesis because 0.05 is greater than 0.01.

Consider the following: In general, when people diet they typically lose 10 lbs. (?σ = 2). A random sample of 16 people on the keto diet lost 15 lbs. Do people on the keto diet lose more or less weight than people on diets in general? 3. What is the Null Hypothesis? a)On average, weight loss in the keto diet sample does not differ from weight loss in the population of dieters in general. (H0: X-bar = Mu)) b)On average, weight loss in the keto diet sample does not differ from weight loss in the population of dieters in general.
