In a study of memory process, rats were first presented with a fear-inducing stimulus on a learning task as soon as they stepped across a line in a test chamber. Afterwards, the rats were divided and given electrical stimulation either 50 or 150 milliseconds after crossing the line. In addition, the rats had stimulation electrodes implanted in different areas in their brains (Neutral Area, Area A, or Area B). Researchers were interested in the time it took the animals to re-cross the line on a subsequent learning task. The idea is that stimulation of certain areas in the brain would interfere with memory and hence delay learning to avoid the line on the subsequent learning task. The data on time to re-cross the line are below. What can be concluded with an a of 0.05? Area Time neutral A B 26 31 29 41 21 12 24 19 25 31 50 19 15 26 26 31 38 30 29 150 24 18 33 24 22

1. A researcher observed a rat respond for a food reward by pressing one of the three levers in a cage. Pressing the lever to the right (R) produced no food reward. pressing the lever to the left (L) produced a single food pellet, and pressing the lever at the center (C) produced two food pellets. Because the center level produced the largest reward, the researcher hypothesized that the rat would press this lever most often. Each trial ended when the rat produced a level. The researcher recorded lever pressing for 30 trials.

A developmental psychologist experiment to determine if exposure to an enriched environment shortly after birth will cause increased brain development. Twenty, two-month-old rats are randomly selected from a pool of one thousand two-month-old rat pups. Ten of the twenty pups are exposed to an enriched environment for three weeks and the other ten to the usual environment for the same period of time. At a suitable time after the exposure, the psychologist measures the number of neurons per cm3 in each rat's brain. A comparison is then made of the mean number of neurons per cm3 for each group.a. What is the population?b. What is the independent variable?c. What is the sample?d. What is the statistics?e. What is the dependent variable?

(B) If the animal is initially in the woods, what is the probability that it is in the meadow on the next three observations?
Marine biologists have noticed that the color of the outermost growth band on a clam tends to be related to the time of year in which the clam dies. A biologist conducted a small investigation of whether this is true for the species Protothaca staminea. She collected a sample of 50 clam shells in February and 27 clam shells in March. 15 of the shells from February had a dark color on the outermost growth band, whereas 8 of the shells from March had a dark color on the outermost growth band. Carry out a hypothesis test to see if there is a difference in the proportion of shells with a dark outermost growth band between the two months. The point estimate for the true difference in proportion of dark growth bands between February and March is:

Marine biologists have noticed that the color of the outermost growth band on a clam tends to be related to the time of year in which the clam dies. A biologist conducted a small investigation of whether this is true for the species Protothaca staminea.

Infants, even newborns, prefer to look at attractive faces compared to less attractive faces (Slater, et al., 1998). In the study, infants from 1 to 6 days old were shown two photographs of women’s faces. Previously, a group of adults had rated one of the faces as significantly more attractive than the other. The babies were positioned in front of a screen on which the photographs were presented. The pair of faces remained on the screen until the baby accumulated a total of 20 seconds of looking at one or the other. The number of seconds looking at the attractive face was recorded for each infant. Suppose that the study used a sample of n = 9 infants and the data produced an average of M = 13 for the attractive face with an estimated standard error sM= 1 (SS = 72). If there were no preference, the 20 seconds should be divided equally between the two photographs. Note that all the available information comes from the sample. Specifically, we do not know the population mean or the…

Exercise 4 Twelve people completed a difficult hand-eye coordination task twice: once in a quiet room, and once in the same room while loud rock-and-roll music was being played. The order in which subjects experienced these conditions was counterbalanced: half performed in the quiet environment first, half performed in the loud environment first. The researcher measured the number of errors committed by the participant while performing. Thus, the lower the score, the better the performance. Here are the results: Participant: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 Quiet Environment: 14 21 24 16 18 20 15 20 17 16 19 12 Loud Environment: 21 22 21 19 18 25 17 18 21 24 21 15 Was there a significant difference in performance between the two treatment conditions (alpha = .05 Using these scores, carry out a t test for two related samples.

To test compliance with authority, a classical experiment in social psychology requires subjects to administer increasingly painful electric shocks to seemingly helpless victims who agonize in an adjacent room.* Each subject earns a score between 0 and 30, depending on the point at which the subject refuses to comply with authority—an investigator, dressed in a white lab coat, who orders the administration of increasingly intense shocks. A score of 0 signifies the subject's unwillingness to comply at the very outset, and a score of 30 signifies the subject's willingness to comply completely with the experimenter's orders. Ignore the very real ethical issues raised by this type of experiment, and assume that you want to study the effect of a “committee atmosphere” on compliance with authority. In one condition, shocks are administered only after an affirmative decision by the committee, consisting of one real subject and two associates of the investigator, who act as subjects but, in…
Child-Proof Bottles. Designing medication packaging that resists opening by children, but yields readily to adults, presents numerous challenges. In the article “Painful Design” (American Scientist, Vol. 93, No. 2, pp. 113–118), H. Petroski examined the packaging used for Aleve, a brand of pain reliever. Three new container designs were given to a panel of children aged 42 months to 51 months. For each design, the children were handed the bottle, shown how to open it, and then left alone with it. If more than 20% of the children succeeded in opening the bottle on their own within 10 minutes, even if by using their teeth, the bottle failed to qualify as child resistant. Identify the a. experimental units. b. response variable. c. factor(s). d. levels of each factor. e. treatments.
Practitioners of a controversial medical practice known as therapeutic touch claim that they can manipulate a person's human energy field to provide healing powers, without actually touching the patient's body. Emily Rosa, an 11-year-old in Colorado, recruited 21 practitioners of therapeutic touch in a study she conducted in 1996 (Rosa et al., 1998). Her study consisted of placing a screen between a subject's eyes and hands. For several trials, she hovered her hand over one of theirs, flipping a coin each time to decide which hand to hold hers over. She then asked the practitioner to decide which of their hands her hand was near to see whether or not the practitioner could detect Emily's energy field. Combining the results of the 21 subjects, there were a total of 123 correct identifications in 280 repetitions of the experiment. Use these sample data to conduct the test of the hypotheses specified in part. What is the z and p value (3 decimals for z) (4 decimals for p- value)
