In a study of high school students at least 16 years of age, researchers obtained results from a survey of risky motor vehicle behaviors. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim of independence between texting while driving (outcome variable) and driving when drinking alcohol (group variable).

The Youth Risk Behavior Survey (a study of public high school students) showed that 45 of 675 girls and 103 of 621 boys had been in a physical fight on school property one or more times during the past 12 months Using 5% significance, perform an appropriate test of hypothesis that the proportion of girlsinvolved in a physical fight on school property is less than the proportion of boys involved in a physical fight on school property.Step 1: H0: ________________ Ha: ____________________ Significance level α =0.05Step 2: Check necessary data conditions and compute an appropriate test statistic:Step 3: Compute corresponding p-value
A case-control (or retrospective) study was conducted to investigate a relationship between the colors of helmets worn by motorcycle drivers and whether they are injured or killed in a crash. Results are given in the accompanying table. Using a 0.01 significance level, test the claim that injuries are independent of helmet color. Color of Helmet Black White Yellow Red Blue Controls (not injured) 494 343 27 168 99 Cases (injured or killed) 210 107 6 71 47
A U.S. study published in The American Journal of Preventive Medicine compared state-level prevalence of firearm ownership in 2002 with state-level rates of firearm assault and firearm robbery in the subsequent year. The investigators found a positive association - meaning that states with higher prevalence of firearm ownership also tended to be the states with higher rates of firearm assault. Which design best describes this study? a)Observational cohort study b)Randomized trial c)Case-control study d)Ecological study

The following cross-table is obtained in a study that examines the relationship between the Department of Education and Competency types. Accordingly, test whether there is a relationship between the two variables at the 10% significance level.
A study of undergraduates looked at gender differences in dieting trends. The following table summarize whether a student tried a low-fat diet, a low-carbohydrate diet, or no diet by gender. Are gender and the likelihood of trying a low-fat diet associated at the 10% significance level? Gender Women Men Tried no diet 42 68 Tried low fat diet 27 12 Tried low-carbohydrate diet 30 29
Downs and Abwender (2002) evaluated soccer players and swimmers to determine whether the routine blows to the head experienced by soccer players produced long term neurological deficits. In the study, neurological tests were administered to mature soccer players and swimmers and the results indicated significant differences. In a similar study, a researcher obtained the following data. Swimmers Soccer Players 10 7 8 4 7 9 9 3 13 7 7 6 12 a)Are the neurological test scores significantly lower for the soccer player than for the swimmers in the control groups? Use a one-tailed test with = .05. b)Compute the value of r² (percentage of variance accounted for) these data.
A magazine subscriber study asked, "In the past 12 months, when traveling for business, what type of airline ticket did you purchase most often?" A second question asked if the type of airline ticket purchased most often was for domestic or international travel. Sample data obtained are shown in the following table. Type of Ticket Type of Flight Domestic International First class 26 19 Business class 98 124 Economy class 518 135 (a) Using a 0.05 level of significance, is the type of ticket purchased independent of the type of flight? State the null and alternative hypotheses. H0: The type of ticket purchased is not independent of the type of flight. Ha: The type of ticket purchased is independent of the type of flight. H0: The type of ticket purchased is mutually exclusive from the type of flight. Ha: The type of ticket purchased is not mutually exclusive from the type of flight.

Independent random samples of 32 people living on the west side of a city and 30 people living on the east side of a city were taken to determine if the income levels of west side residents are significantly different from the income levels of east side residents. Given the testing statistics below, determine if the data provides sufficient evidence to conclude that the income levels of west side residents are significantly different from the income levels of east side residents, at the 2% significance level. H0:μw=μeHa:μw≠μe t0=2.364 t0.01=±2.099 Select the correct answer below: No; the test statistic is not between the critical values. No; the test statistic is between the critical values. Yes; the test statistic is not between the critical values. Yes; the test statistic is between the critical values.
