Half of the research participants were randomlyassigned to experience high insecurity (manipulated by announcing 50% layoffs) and half were assigned to experience low insecurity (announcementof 5% layoffs). In addition, the researcher was also interested in whether or not the method by which the layoffs were to occur would influence jobattitudes and perceived fairness. Therefore, half of the research participants were assigned to a fair layoff condition (i.e., layoffs determined by jobperformance) and half were assigned to an unfair condition (i.e., layoffs determined by favoritism). Employees were asked to make ratings on severalissues: how important their jobs were ("job importance"), the extent to which they intended to quit working for the organization ("turnoverintentions"), their perceived chances of being laid off ("chances of being laid off"), and perceptions of fairness ("perceived fairness"). Finally, they wereasked to decide whether they wanted to quit working for the organization or remain employed with the organization ("decision to quit").'5 or 50% Layoff Fair/UnfairJobTurnoverChances of Perceived DecisionConditionMethod Importance Intentions Being Laid Off Fairnessto Quit43712375211210124511352114357123475221211021347521121032757116.24502222501216325322225012122502224350212235012225522435021Coding Manual: Layoff Condition: 1= 5% 2 = 50%Fairness Condition: 1 = Fair 2 = UnfairDecision to Quit: 1= Quit 2= Remain

A sociologist wants to investigate the question, "Is there a relationship between texting during class and grade-point-average (GPA) among high school seniors in a large district?" Which study design is most appropriate? Before the semester starts, randomly select 40 seniors from each high school who do not text during class. Assign 20 to the texting treatment group (text three or more times during every class meeting) and 20 to the control group (no texting during class). At the end of the semester, obtain each student’s GPA from the appropriate admissions and records office. Compare the GPA of students who routinely text during class to the GPA of students who do not text during class.

Two years ago the manager of a local supermarket that sells three national brands (brands A, B, and C) and one store brand (brand D) of orange juice found that brands A and C were equally preferred, 33% preferred brand B, and 27% preferred the store brand, D. Now, the manager thinks that there has been a change in customer preferences and that the preference for store-brand orange juice has increased and perhaps will positively contribute to increased profits. The results from a recent random sample of shoppers indicate the following preferences.Favorite brand A B C D (store brand)Number 56 70 28 126Has there been a change in customer preferences from the study 2 years ago?
In a small study, a local community college investigated different indicators of college success. They found that: 0.36 of enrolled students had a full time job, 0.75 of enrolled students were enrolled full-time, and 0.19 of students enrolled full-tme also had a full-time job. According to the results of this study, are the outcomes "have a full-time job" and "enrolled full-time independent?
Aronson and Mills (1959) conducted an experiment to see whether people's liking for a group is influenced by the severity of initiation. They reasoned that when people willingly undergo a severe initiation to become members of a group, they are motivated to think that the group membership must be worthwhile. Otherwise, they would experience cognitive dissonance: Why put up with severe initiation for the sake of a group membership that is worthless? In their experiment, participants were randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups: Group 1 (control) had no initiation. Group 2 (mild) had a mildly embarrassing initiation (reading words related to sex out loud). Group 3 (severe) had a severely embarrassing initiation (reading sexually explicit words and obscene words out loud). After the initiation, each person listened to a standard tape-recorded discussion among the group that they would now supposedly be invited to join; this was made up made to be as dull and banal as possible.…
Do well-rounded people get fewer colds? A study on the Chronicle of Higher Education was conducted by scientist at Carnegie Mellon University, the University of Pittsburgh and the University of Virginia. They found that people who have only a few social outlets get more colds than those who are involved in a variety of social activities. Suppose that of the 276 healthy men and women tested, n1=96 had only a few social outlets and n2=105 were busy with six or more activities. When these people were exposed to a cold virus, the following results were observed: Construct a 99% confidence interval for the difference in the two population proportions.
In studies examining the effect of humor on interpersonal attractions, McGee and Shevlin (2009) found that an individual’s sense of humor had a significant effect on how the individual was perceived by others. In one part of the study, female college students were given brief descriptions of a potential romantic partner. The fictitious male was described positively as being single and ambitious and having good job prospects. For one group of participants, the description also said that he had a great sense of humor. For another group, it said that he has no sense of humor. After reading the description, each participant was asked to rate the attractiveness of the man on a seven-point scale from 1 (very unattractive) to 7 (very attractive). A score of 4 indicates a neutral rating. The females who read the “great sense of humor” description gave the potential partner an average attractiveness score of M = 4.53 with a standard deviation of s = 1.04. If the sample consisted of n = 16…

A study examined parental influence on the decisions of teenagers from a certain large region to smoke. A randomly selected group of students from the region who had never smoked were questioned about their parents' attitudes toward smoking. These students were questioned again two years later to see if they had started smoking. The researchers found that among the 264 students who indicated that their parents disapproved of kids smoking, 36 had become established smokers. Among the 46 students who initially said their parents were lenient about smoking, 25 became smokers. what is the test statisitc? (z =?). What is the p-value?

A company receives a large number of job applications, which are at first evaluated centrally at the HR department. Each application receives a score between 0 and 100 from an HR expert. The evaluations are done by three HR experts, who apply the same, standardised scoring scheme to obtain the final score. Despite the fact that the procedure has been standardised and the experts have been trained, the management is still concerned that the system may not be fair because there may be differences between the scoring tendencies of the three experts: If at least one expert tends to give higher or lower scores than the others, that is a problem, because the score will not only depend on the quality of the application but also on which HR expert evaluated it. Therefore, the management decides to conduct a small-scale experiment to find out whether there are significant differences between the three raters' scoring tendencies. In order to control for the differences between applications, each…
