Cheaters, study components:  Researchers studying the relationship between honesty, age, and self-control conducted an experiment on 160 children between the ages of 5 and 15. Participants reported their age, sex, and whether they were an only child or not. The researchers asked each child to toss a fair coin in private and to record the outcome (white or black) on a paper sheet, and said they would only reward children who report white. Half the students were explicitly told not to cheat and the others were not given any explicit instructions. In the "no instruction" group the probability of cheating was found to be uniform across groups based on a child's characteristics. In the group that was explicitly told to not cheat, girls were less likely to cheat, and while rate of cheating didn't vary by age for boys, it decreased with age for girls (Ritz et al. 2000). Identify the following a) What are the cases?  b) What are the variables and their types?  c) What is the main research question?

If there are 11 people in the first sample and 10 people in the second sample, the degrees of freedom for the first sample is type your answer... and type your answer... for the second sample.

A consumer survey was conducted to examine patterns in ownership of tablet computers, cellular telephones, and Blu-ray players. The following data were obtained: 311 people had tablet computers, 236 had cell phones, 265 had Blu-ray players, 65 had all three, 62 had none, 92 had cell phones and Blu-ray players, 57 had cell phones but no computers or Blu-ray players, and 108 had computers and Blu-ray players but no cell phones. (Round your answers to one decimal place.) A) What percent of people surveyed owned a cell phone? B) What percent of the people surveyed owned only a cell phone?

Does the location of your seat in a classroom play a role in attendance or grade? 1600 students in a physics course were randomly assigned to one of four groups. The 400 students in group 1 sat 0 to 4 meters from the front of the class, the 400 students in group 2 sat 4 to 6.5 meters from the front, the 400 students in group 3 sat 6.5 to 9 meters from the front, and the 400 students in group 4 sat 9 to 12 meters from the front. Complete parts (a) through (c). Click the icon to view the chi-square table of critical values. (a) For the first half of the semester, the attendance for the whole class averaged 83%. So, if there is no effect due to seat location, we would expect 83% of students in each group to attend. The data show the attendance history for each group. How many students in each group attended, on average? Is there a significant difference among the groups in attendance patterns? 3 4 Group Attendance 1 0.84 0.84 0.84 0.80 The number of students who attended in the first…
