If I have a sample of 20 people what is my T-threshold for a two-tail test and an alpha of 0.1 percent?
A nationwide study of undergraduate students reported that the mean number of drinks consumed per week during the spring semester is 7.96. The mean number of drinks consumed per week at USC is 7.64 (s.d.=2.55, N=412 Health services is concerned that USC students are consuming significantly more alcohol per week than the national average. Using an alpha level of .05, Is there sufficient evidence to be concerned? Be sure to select the correct critical value for the alternative hypothesis, and then use this evidence to make your conclusion
As we have noted in previous chapters, even a very small effect can be significant if the sample is large enough. Suppose, for example, that a researcher obtains a correlation (computed from the raw data) of r = 0.60 for a sample of n = 10 participants. (4 pts. total) Is this sample sufficient to conclude that a significant correlation exists in the population? Use a two-tailed test with α = .05. In your response, be sure to specify the critical value for r.
The NAEP considers that a national average of 283 is an acceptable performance. Using α = .05, run a two-tail t-test for one sample to test Ho: µ=283 for the 2019 scores. Report the t-obt, df, and p-values. Would you reject the null hypothesis that the 2019 scores come from a population with average 283? If this is the case, does it come from a population from larger or smaller average?
Previous research has established that nationwide, for older adults, the average score on the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II) is 8.13 with σ = 1.56. A researcher working in a nursing home wants to know if depression levels are different for older adults living in a nursing home compared to older adults nationwide. He takes a random sample of 200 adults living in a nursing home facility and gives them each the BDI-II. The average for his sample is 8.45. Is there a difference in the BDI-II scores of those living in a nursing home compared to those living in their own homes? Test with an a = 0.01.
In the population of senior students at Shermer High School, the proportion who plan to attend college is 0.64. In a random sample of 100 students from this population, the proportion who plan to attend college is 0.75. We would call the value 0.64 a P-value. z-score. parameter statistic significance level.
If you have a two-tailed test with an alpha of .05, what is the critical value when n = 22? If you have a one-tailed test with an alpha of .05, what is the critical value when n = 158?

A sample of 124 kissing couples were observed, with 44 of them leaning their heads to the left. Use these sample data to test whether or not the population proportion of kissing couples who lean their heads to the left differs from 1/3. What is the z and p-value?
Serum nitrite concentrations (in μmol/L) were compared between a group of unmedicated HIV+ subjects (n =7) and a control group (n = 10). The HIV+ distribution is strongly skewed.a) Use a Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney U test to determine if there is convincing evidence at α = 0.05 thatserum nitrite levels differ between the two populations. b) What would have been the U test p-value if researchers had instead hypothesized that serum nitriteconcentrations would tend to be larger in the HIV+ population? HIV+ Control 0.266 0.167 0.269 0.201 0.299 0.205 0.335 0.232 0.503 0.234 0.846 0.260 0.946 0.268 0.288 0.301 0.305
