Based on a survey of a random sample of 900 adults in the United States, a journalist reports that A random sample of 100 movie goers was asked to state his or her gender and favorite soft drink available at the local movie theater. The results appear in the table below. Is there a relationship between gender and soft drink preference? Coke Diet Coke Sprite Male 23 11 12 Female 16 28 10 To analyze the results, which of the following tests is most appropriate?

A Canadian study measuring depression level in teens (as reported in the Journal of Adolescence, vol. 25, 2002) randomly sampled 112 male teens and 101 female teens, and scored them on a common depression scale (higher score representing more depression). The researchers suspected that the mean depression score for male teens is higher than for female teens, and wanted to check whether data would support this hypothesis. If μ1 and μ2 represent the mean depression score for male teens and female teens respectively, which of the following is an appropriate pair of hypotheses in this case? Check all that apply.
the superintendent of a school district decided to collect data on the effectiveness of two methods of teaching reading: the whole word approach and phonics. She randomly assigned half of the elementary schools (n=10) to the whole world approach for teaching reading and half to phonics (n=10). The results are as follows: Whole world m= 77.3 ss= 336.1 Phonics m= 89 ss= 266 1. Use a two tailed test with alpha= .01 to determine whether these data are sufficient to conclude that there is a significant difference between using the whole word and the phonics approach to reading. 2. Compute cohen's d to measure the size of the effect. 3. Which method would you reccomend that the school district adopt for teaching reading and why?
In ongoing economic analyses, the federal government compares per capita incomes not only among different states but also for the same state at different times. Typically, what the federal government finds is that "poor" states tend to stay poor and "wealthy" states tend to stay wealthy. Would we have gotten information about the 1999 per capita income for a state (denoted by y ) from its 1980 per capita income (denoted by x)? The following bivariate data give the per capita income (in thousands of dollars) for a sample of fifteen states in the years 1980 and 1999 (source: U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis, Survey of Current Business, May 2000). The data are plotted in the scatter plot in Figure 1. Also given is the product of the 1980 per capita income and the 1999 per capita income for each of the fifteen states. (These products, written in the column labelled " xy ", may aid in calculations.) Question table 1980 per capita income, x (in $1000 s) 1999 per capita…
Use the following SPSS output to answer the questions. Use an alpha level of .05: Which variable is the independent variable? Which variable is the dependent variable? What would be the null hypothesis for the chi-square test? What would be the research hypothesis for the chi-square test? Is the chi-square test statistically significant? Should we reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis? What is the appropriate measure of association for this table?
In ongoing economic analyses, the U.S. federal government compares per capita incomes not only among different states but also for the same state at different times. Typically, what the federal government finds is that "poor" states tend to stay poor and "wealthy" states tend to stay wealthy. Would we have been able to predict the 1999 per capita income for a state (denoted by y ) from its 1980 per capita income (denoted by x )? The following bivariate data give the per capita income (in thousands of dollars) for a sample of fourteen states in the years 1980 and 1999 (source: U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis, Survey of Current Business, May 2000 ). The data are plotted in the scatter plot in Figure 1, and the least-squares regression line is drawn.

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?

Do types of crimes reported on television newscasts differ by the age of the criminals? A researcher uses her dvr to record the local television news for a 2-week period of time. She records the types of crimes and notes the age of the offender. Conduct a chi-square test (alpha = .05) of the null hypothesis that televised offense type does not vary by age group of offender. Offense type Young middle age older violent 27 10 3 property 14 12 11 sex 7 9 5 Report the obtained chi-square, df, and critical chi-square. Report your findings based on the null hypothesis.
