A random sample of n = 25 individuals is selected from a population with μ = 20, and a treatment is administered to each individual in the sample. After treatment, the sample mean is found to be M = 22.2 with SS = 384. c. Based on the sample data, does the treatment have a significant effect? Use a two-tailed test with α = .05.

The NAEP considers that a national average of 283 is an acceptable performance. Using α = .05, run a two-tail t-test for one sample to test Ho: µ=283 for the 2019 scores. Report the t-obt, df, and p-values. Would you reject the null hypothesis that the 2019 scores come from a population with average 283? If this is the case, does it come from a population from larger or smaller average?
A nationwide study of undergraduate students reported that the mean number of drinks consumed per week during the spring semester is 7.96. The mean number of drinks consumed per week at USC is 7.64 (s.d.=2.55, N=412 Health services is concerned that USC students are consuming significantly more alcohol per week than the national average. Using an alpha level of .05, Is there sufficient evidence to be concerned? Be sure to select the correct critical value for the alternative hypothesis, and then use this evidence to make your conclusion
A random sample of eight pairs of twins was randomly assigned to treatment A or treatment B. The data are given in the following table. Is there significant evidence that the two treatments differ using an alpha .05paired t test.
In a survey of 460 drivers from the South, 397 wear a seat belt. In a survey of 340 drivers from the Northeast, 281 wear a seat belt. At alpha equals 0.06 , can you support the claim that the proportion of drivers who wear seat belts is greater in the South than in the Northeast? Assume the random samples are independent. Complete parts (a) through (e).
A random sample of 22 women participated in a study testing whether a new banana boat sunscreen reduced their incident rate of sunburn during the summer. The average woman in the study reported getting burned 5.7 times over the past 3 months, with a SS = 179. Compare this incident rate to a rate of 7 times per 3 months. Use an alpha of .05, 2 tailed test. a) What is the t-critical value(s)? b) What is the estimated standard error? c) Compute the t-statistic. d) Make a decision regarding the null and provide a conclusion (explain what it means in regards to this particular study).
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? (please show your work and state your decision regarding the H0.) 2b. Calculate Effect size by using r^2 (percentage of variance explained) and state the meaning of effect size.
Are sexually active teenagers any better informed about AIDS and other potential health problems related to sex than teenagers who are sexually inactive? A 15 – item test of general knowledge about sex and health was administered to random samples of teens who are sexually inactive, teens who are sexually active but with only a single partner, and teens who are sexually active with more than one partner. Is there any significant difference in the test scores? Test the hypothesis at α = 0.05. Inactive Active (One Partner) Active (More than One Partner) 10 11 12 12 11 12 8 6 10 10 5 4 8 15 3 5 10 15
A sample of n = 25 scores is selected from a population with mu = 80 with sigma ^ 2 = 20 On average, how much error is expected between the sample mean and the population mean?
A researcher used a sample of n =16 adults between the ages of 40 and 45. For each person, the researcher recorded the difference between the ratings obtained while smiling and the rating obtained while frowning. On average the cartoons were rated as funnier when the participants were smiling, with an average difference of MD = 1.6, with SS = 135. Are the cartoons rated as significantly funnier when the participants are smiling ? Use a one-tailed test with α = .05. Compute r2 to measure the size of the treatment effect. r2 is
