A researcher would like to examine how the chemical tryptophan, contained in foods such as turkey, can affect mental alertness. A sample of n = 9 college students is obtained, and each student’s performance on a familiar video game is measured before and after eating a traditional Thanksgiving dinner including roast turkey. The average score dropped by MD = 14 points after the meal with SS = 1152 for the difference scores. What is the critical value of t for two tailed, alpha 0.05. Give the exact number from Table B2. What is the sample variance? Report a number to one decimal. What is the sample standard deviation? Report to one decimal What is the value for the estimated standard error? Report to one decimal. What if the observed t value from the example above? Answer to two decimals. How many degrees of freedom are in the current study? Report a whole number no decimals.

In an experiment, n = 35 are assigned to the control group, and n = 41 are assigned to the experimental group. What is the critical t value for alpha = .05, two-tailed test?
A researcher did a one-tailed one-sample t-test to test the hypothesis that babies prefer the color blue over the color red. He collected a sample of 26 babies and presented them with a red plastic star and a blue plastic start for 12 seconds. The researcher measured the amount of time each baby spent watching the blue star out of the 12 seconds. What is the critical t value, assuming the alpha level used was .05?
Dr. Ingrid is conducting an experiment to see whether time spent reading is related to poor vision. To do so, she creates three groups and randomly assigns 17 participants to each: the first group reads for 30 min a day, the second group reads for 1hr a day, and the third group reads for 1.5 hrs a day. Dr. Ingrid plans on using a one-way ANOVA to analyze the results of her experiment. If Dr. Ingrid has set alpha to .01, what will be her critical value of F?
Explain why the critical value of t, one-tailed, alpha = .05 is the same as the critical value of t, two-tailed, a .10 .
If you have a two-tailed test with an alpha of .05, what is the critical value when n = 22? If you have a one-tailed test with an alpha of .05, what is the critical value when n = 158?
A survey of 90 recently delivered women on the rolls of a county welfare department revealed that 27 had a history of intrapartum or postpartum infection. Can we conclude that the population proportion with a history of intrapartum or postpartum infection is significantly less than or equal to 0.25? Let alpha = 0.05.
If the value of Cronbach’s alpha is 0.07, it means ___________; a. Research instrument is not reliable b. Research instrument is internally consistent c. Data is reliable d. Data is internally consistent
If I have a sample of 20 people what is my T-threshold for a two-tail test and an alpha of 0.1 percent?
When testing: H0: (alpha)1^2=(alpha)2^2. HA: (alpha)1^2>(alpha)2^2. At (alpha)=0.01, n1=5, n2=6. s1^2=15750 and s2^2=10920, what critical value do we use?
The test statistic of z = -2.27 is obtained when testing the claim that p < 0.32 Part A: using a significance level a= 0.10, find the critical value(s)
As we have noted in previous chapters, even a very small effect can be significant if the sample is large enough. Suppose, for example, that a researcher obtains a correlation (computed from the raw data) of r = 0.60 for a sample of n = 10 participants. (4 pts. total) Is this sample sufficient to conclude that a significant correlation exists in the population? Use a two-tailed test with α = .05. In your response, be sure to specify the critical value for r.
We plan to run a two-tailed t-test. Our sample size is 8, and we've decided upon an alpha level of 0.01. From the t-table, what is the t critical value(s)?
