A personality psychologist is interested if being a snob is heritable. To answer this question a personality psychologist recruits a huge sample of 2,593 identical twins and found that identical twins were similar in how snobby they were with an effect size of r=0.51. They also recruit a huge sample of 1,845 fraternal twins and found that fraternal twins were also similar in how snobby they were with an effect size of r=0.47. Calculate the heritability coefficient for being a snob. Remember that your data here is made up, so please don't tell your friends about how heritable their snobbishness is. Answer:

- In a classic study, Shrauger (1972) examined the effect of an audience on performance for two groups of participants: high self-esteem and low self-esteem individuals. The participants in the study were given a problem-solving task with half of the individuals in each group working alone and a half working with an audience. Performance on the problem-solving task was measured for each individual. The results showed that the presence of an audience had little effect on high self-esteem participants but significantly lowered the performance for the low self-esteem participants. a. How many factors does this study have? What are they? b. Describe this study using the notation system that indicates factors and numbers of levels of each factor.If a newborn lab rat receives a hormone and its weight (in ounces) is converted into a z score that is greater than +2.00, what would the researcher most likely conclude about whether or not the hormone had an effect on the rat's weight?A researcher has access to 100 participants for an independent sample design study, and she is hoping to achieve power = .80.What effect size will her data need to achieve to make that possible?
- You are concerned that nausea may be a side effect of Tamiflu, but you cannot just give Tamiflu to patients with the flu and say that nausea is a side effect if people become nauseous.

Which of the following is the name of the design of this study? 2 x 3 design 2 x 2 design One way design 3 x 3 designA student wondered what proportion of a large jar of thousands of marbles were red and speculated that it was 0.30. She took a random sample of 50 marbles and got 18 red marbles, for a sample proportion of 0.36. Below is a dotplot of 100 simulated samples of drawing 50 marbles from a population that is set up to have the proportion of "red marbles" to be 0.30. Based on this dotplot, would getting a sample of 50 marbles to have a 0.36 proportion of red marbles be significant evidence that the true proportion of red marbles in the whole jar is greater than 0.30?
- Parents are frequently concerned when their child seems slow to begin walking (although when the child finally walks, the resulting havoc sometimes has the parents wishing they could turn back the clock!). An article on this topic reported on an experiment in which the effects of several different treatments on the age at which a child first walks were compared. Children in the first group were given special walking exercises for 12 minutes per day beginning at age 1 week and lasting 7 weeks. The second group of children received daily exercises but not the walking exercises administered to the first group. The third and fourth groups were control groups. They received no special treatment and differed only in that the third group's progress was checked weekly, whereas the fourth group's progress was checked just once at the end of the study. Observations on age (in months) when the children first walked are shown in the accompanying table. Age n Total Treatment 1 9.00 9.50…Researchers wanted to determine whether fence lizards learned to avoid fire ants. To determine this, they gathered lizards from eastern Arkansas (where there were no fire ants), and from southern Alabama (which had been invaded by fire ants). The lizards were then exposed to fire ants, and researchers measured how long (in seconds) it took the lizards to flee. The researchers observed that the lizards from Alabama had an average response time of 32 seconds, and the lizards from Arkansas had an average response time of 44 seconds. Using this, which of the following is closest to the P-value for this hypothesis test? Choice 1:0.5 Choice 2:0.005 Choice 3:0.05 Choice 4:1 Choice 5:0.01 Which is the correct choice and why?Suzanne Zeedyk, a developmental psychologist at Dundee University’s School of Psychology, conducted a pilot study in which parents started a half-hour walk with their infants in a parent-facing or an away-facing stroller and then switched to the other type of stroller midway. Her results suggest that parents talked less to the babies, the babies had higher heart rates, and they were less likely to fall asleep in away-facing strollers than in parent-facing strollers. You are interested in testing the hypothesis that babies who travel in parent-facing strollers have different expressive vocabularies than babies who travel in away-facing strollers. You randomly assign 13 newborns to parent-facing strollers and 13 newborns to away-facing strollers. You then test the babies’ expressive vocabularies at age 36 months using the Expressive Vocabulary Test (EVT), which is designed primarily to assess children’s expressive vocabulary. The sample means and sums of squares of the scores for each of…
