Pillman et al. (A-11) studied patients with acute brief episodes of psychoses. The researchers classified subjects into four personality types: obsessiod, asthenic=low self-confident, asthenic=high self-confident, nervous=tense, and undeterminable. The table below cross-classifies these personality types with three groups of subjects—those with acute and transient psychotic disorders (ATPD), those with “positive” schizophrenia (PS), and those with bipolar schizo-affective disorder (BSAD): REVIEW QUESTIONS AND EXERCISES 87 Personality Type Obsessoid (O) Asthenic=low Self-confident (A) Asthenic=high Self-confident (S) Nervous=tense (N) Undeterminable (U) ATPD (1) 9 20 5 4 4 PS (2) 2 17 3 7 13 42 BSAD (3) Total Total 42 6 17 15 52 8 16 4 15 9 26 42 126 Source: Frank Pillmann, Raffaela Bloink, Sabine Balzuweit, Annette Haring, and Andreas Marneros, “Personality and Social Interactions in Patients with Acute Brief Psychoses,” Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease, 191 (2003), 503–508.

A study in Sweden looked at former elite soccer players, people who had played soccer but not at the elite level, and people of the same age who did not play soccer. Here is a two-way table that classifies these subjects by whether or not they had arthritis of the hip or knee by their mid-fifties: Elite Non-elite Did not play Arthritis 10 9 24 No arthritis 61 206 548 Based on this study, you can conclude that
An experiment to determine if a migraine medication decreases a person's average number of monthly migraines is performed on 400 people who report they have several migraines a month. Researchers randomly assigned 200 people to the treatment group and 200 people to the control group. After the study, the researchers determined that 48 of the subjects in the treatment group and 28 of the subjects in the control group average fewer migraines per month. The data from the two groups are resampled 150 times, and the table shows the distribution of the differences of the proportions for the reconfigured treatment and control groups.
In studies examining the effect of humor on interpersonal attractions, McGee and Shevlin (2009) found that an individual’s sense of humor had a significant effect on how the individual was perceived by others. In one part of the study, female college students were given brief descriptions of a potential romantic partner. The fictitious male was described positively as being single and ambitious and having good job prospects. For one group of participants, the description also said that he had a great sense of humor. For another group, it said that he has no sense of humor. After reading the description, each participant was asked to rate the attractiveness of the man on a seven-point scale from 1 (very unattractive) to 7 (very attractive). A score of 4 indicates a neutral rating. The females who read the “great sense of humor” description gave the potential partner an average attractiveness score of M = 4.53 with a standard deviation of s = 1.04. If the sample consisted of n = 16…
In a number of pharmaceutical studies volunteers who take placebos but they are told they have taken a cold remedy report the following side effects head ache 25%, drowsiness 7%, stomach upset 4%, no side effects 84%.a random sample of 250 people who were given a placebo but who thought they have taken an anti inflammatory reported whether they had experienced each of the side effects. Do the data presented in the table provide enough evidence to infer that the reported side effects of placebo for an anti inflammatory differ from that of a cold remedy? Use 10% significance level. Side effects number of people Headache 10 Drowsiness 19 Stomach upset 6 No side effect 215
In a study of the Gouldian finch, Griffith et al. (2011) looked at stress caused by having an incompatible mate. There are two genetically distinct types of Gouldian finches, one having a red face and the other having a black face. Previous experiments have shown that female finches have a strong preference for mating with males with the same face color as themselves and that when different face types of finch mate with one another, their offspring are less likely to survive than when both parents are the same type. Researchers paired females sequentially with males of both types in random order.In other words, each female bred twice once with a compatible male and once with an incompatible male. Each time, females produced a brood of young with the assigned male. For each pairing, the researchers measured the blood corticosterone concentration (in units of ng/ml) as an index of the amount of stress the females experienced. The corticosterone data for 43 females are given below:…
An automotive engineer is investigating two different types of metering devices for an electronic fuel injection system to determine whether they differ in their fuel mileage performance. The system is installed on 10 different cars, and a test is run with each metering device on each car. The data is provided below: Metering Device Car 1 2 1 17.6 16.8 2 19.4 20.0 3 18.2 17.6 4 17.1 16.4 5 15.3 16.0 6 15.9 15.9 7 16.3 16.5 8 18.0 18.4 9 17.3 16.4 10 19.1 20.1 Is there a significant difference between the means of the two metering devices? Use . Interpret the result in the context of the problem. An article in the journal Hazardous Waste and Hazardous Materials (Vol. 6, 1989) reported the results of an analysis of the weight of calcium in standard cement and cement doped with lead. Reduced levels of calcium would indicate that the hydration mechanism in the cement is blocked…
Aronson and Mills (1959) conducted an experiment to see whether people's liking for a group is influenced by the severity of initiation. They reasoned that when people willingly undergo a severe initiation to become members of a group, they are motivated to think that the group membership must be worthwhile. Otherwise, they would experience cognitive dissonance: Why put up with severe initiation for the sake of a group membership that is worthless? In their experiment, participants were randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups: Group 1 (control) had no initiation. Group 2 (mild) had a mildly embarrassing initiation (reading words related to sex out loud). Group 3 (severe) had a severely embarrassing initiation (reading sexually explicit words and obscene words out loud). After the initiation, each person listened to a standard tape-recorded discussion among the group that they would now supposedly be invited to join; this was made up made to be as dull and banal as possible.…
A paper investigated the driving behavior of teenagers by observing their vehicles as they left a high school parking lot and then again at a site approximately 1 2 mile from the school. Assume that it is reasonable to regard the teen drivers in this study as representative of the population of teen drivers.

Data consistent with summary quantities appearing in the paper are given in the table. The measurements represent the difference between the observed vehicle speed and the posted speed limit (in miles per hour) for a sample of male teenage drivers and a sample of female teenage drivers. (Use ?males − ?females. Round your test statistic to two decimal places. Round your degrees of freedom down to the nearest whole number. Round your p-value to three decimal places.) t = df =…

A sample of 250 high school students were asked, “If you had $1000 to contribute to one kind of charitableorganization, which type of organization would you choose? Here is a two-way table that displays data ongender and response to this question. Which of the following conclusions seems to be supported by the data?(a) Most of the females who chose a health organization would have chosen an environmental organizationas their second choice, had they been asked.(b) There is no association between gender and choice of organization.(c) The proportion of males who said they would contribute to an environmental organization is higher thanthe proportion of females who said they would contribute such an organization.(d) None of the students surveyed said they would contribute to religious organizations.(e) The marginal relative frequencies of organization are 140, 110.
A study collected arm bone strength information for two groups of young men. The first group in the study was a control group of 15 men who are not baseball players. The table below gives the bone strengths of the dominant and the nondominant arms for those 15 men.

We know that these baseball players use their dominant arm in throwing (those who throw with their nondominant arm were excluded), so they get more arm exercise than the controls.
