Determine the best test and conduct the six steps of hypothesis testing for each, 95% Confidence Interval, and appropriate measure of effect size. Assume P level of .05. "Are Women Really More Talkative Than Men?" is the title of an article that appeared in the journal Science. In this article, Mehl, Vazire, Ramirez-Esparza, Slatcher, and Pennebaker (2007) report the results of a study of 396 men and women. Each participant wore a microphone that recorded every word he or she uttered. The researchers counted the number of words uttered by men and women and compared them. The data below are fictional, but they re-create the pattern that Mehl and colleagues observed: Men: 16,345, 17,222, 15,646, 14,889, 16,701 Women: 17,345, 15,593, 16,624, 16,696, 14,200

What is meant by the sample space of an experiment?
An epidemiologist is worried about the prevalence of the flu in East Vancouver and the potential shortage of vaccines for the area. She will need to provide a recommendation for how to allocate the vaccines appropriately across the city. She takes a simple random sample of 339 people living in East Vancouver and finds that 40 have recently had the flu. For each of the following statements, specify whether the statement is a correct interpretation of the 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of East Vancouver residents who have recently had the flu. A. 11.80% (40/339) of East Vancouver residents have recently had the flu. ? true false B. There is a 95% probability that the true proportion of East Vancouver residents who have recently had the flu equals 40/339. ? true false C. If another random sample of 339 East Vancouver residents is drawn, there is a 95% probability that the sample proportion of East Vancouver residents who have recently had the flu equals 40/339. ?…
Given a large sample with a mean of 72 and a SEM of 10, input the smallest whole number (no decimal) that would fall outside a 95% confidence interval? It can either the upperbound or lowerbound.
Suppose that a safety group surveyed 1,100 drivers. Among those surveyed, 65% said that careless or aggressive driving was the biggest threat on the road, and 25% said that cell phone usage by other drivers was the driving behavior that annoyed them the most. Based on these data and assuming that the sample was a simple random sample, construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval estimate for the true proportion in the population of all drivers who are annoyed by cell phone users. The confidence interval estimate is ??––––––??> (Round to three decimal places as needed. Use ascending order.) Interpret the confidence interval estimate. A. There is a 0.95 probability that the population proportion of drivers who are annoyed by cell phone users is in the interval. B. There is 95% confidence that the population proportion of drivers who are annoyed by cell phone users is in the interval. C. There is 95% confidence that the population proportion…
Provide an explanation as to why it would be very unlikely that a different sample of size n=30 would produce the same confidence interval.
In a study of cell phone use and brain hemispheric dominance, an Internet survey was e-mailed to 2482 subjects randomly selected from an online group involved with ears. 1095 surveys were returned. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of returned surveys. a) p = .441 b) E= 0.016 c) Construct the confidence interval= .425< p < .457 ***QUESTION** Write a statement that correctly interprets the confidence interval. Choose the correct answer below. A. 90% of sample proportions will fall between the lower bound and the upper bound. B. There is a 90% chance that the true value of the population proportion will fall between the lower bound and the upper bound. C. One has 90% confidence that the interval from the lower bound to the upper bound actually does contain the true value of the population proportion. D. One has 90% confidence that the sample proportion is equal to the population proportion.
Michael Scott, regional manager at Dunder Mifflin Scranton, bought a coin from a magic shop that is designed to flip heads much more often than tails. Dwight Schrute, his employee, wants to estimate the proportion of all flips of this coin that will be heads. In 400 flips of the coin Dwight flipped heads 312 times. Construct and interpret the 90% confidence interval for the population proportion of flips that will be heads.
If a 95% confidence interval for μ is calculated to be (21.4 , 27.9) , what would be the result of a hypothesis test at a 5% significance level performed on the set of hypotheses? H0: μ=27 vs H1: μ≠27
