The paper “Contemporary College Students and Body Piercing” (Journal of Adolescent Health [2004]: 58-61) described a survey of 450 undergraduate students at a state university in the southwest region of the United States. Each student in the sample was classified according to class standing (freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior) and body art category (body piercings only, tattoos only, both tattoos and body piercings, no body art). Use the data in the accompanying table to determine if there is evidence that there is an association between class standing and response to the body art question. Assume that it is reasonable to regard the sample of students as representative of the students at this university. Use α = .01.
Reviewers from the Oregon Evidence-Based Practice Center at the Oregon Health and Science University investigated the effectiveness of prescription drugs in assisting people to fall asleep and stay asleep (source: S. Carson, M.S. McDonagh, et al., “Drug class review: Newer drugs for insomnia,” Oregon Health and Science University, 2008, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov). Suppose a study of two drugs, Sonata and Ambien, was conducted and the resulting data are contained in a file titled Shuteye. The samples reflect an experiment in which individuals were randomly given the two brands of pills on separate evenings. Their time spent sleeping was recorded for each of the brands of sleeping pills.
(A) Does the experiment seem to have dependent or independent samples? Explain your reasoning.
(B) Do the data indicate that there is a statistical difference in the mean time spent sleeping for people using the two drugs? Test using alpha = 0.02. Conduct a statistical procedure to determine this.
(C)…
Based on a survey of 12,344 U.S. college students and 6,729 Canadian college students, Kuo, Adlaf, Lee, Gliksman, Demers, and Wechsler (2002) report that alcohol use is more common among Canadian than U.S. students, but heavy drinking (five or more drinks in a row for males, four or more for females) is significantly higher among U.S. students than Canadian students.
Is this an example of a survey research design?

In the study, femalecollege students were given brief descriptions of a potential romantic partner and then rated the attractivenessof the male on a scale from 1 (low) to 7 (high). Thefictitious male was described positively as being single,ambitious, and having good job prospects. In one condition, the description also said that he had a great senseof humor. The results showed that the description wasrated significantly higher when “a sense of humor” wasincluded.

- To determine a target audience for a new email package, a computer company surveyed a large random sample of potential customers, asking each whether he/she uses email on a regular basis. (The company considered "a regular basis" to be at least three times a week.) The data, as summarized in the contingency table below, were classified according to two variables: the age of the respondent ("under 18", "18-35", "36-54", "55+") and regularity of email use ("on a regular basis" or "not on a regular basis"). Each cell of the table contains three numbers: the first number is the observed cell frequency (fO); the second number is the expected cell frequency (fE) under the assumption that there is no dependence between age and regularity of email use and the third number is the following value.arrow_forwardTo determine a target audience for a new email package, a computer company surveyed a large random sample of potential customers, asking each whether he/she uses email on a regular basis.

- An owner of an ice cream shop wants to investigate whether a new training program affects the scooping skills of ice cream shop employees. To assess this, the owner divides employees into two groups: those who receive training (CT) and those who do not (NT). The owner evaluates their scooping skills using a scooping proficiency test. The dataset includes the test scores of the NT (no training) group: 15.00, 7.00, 18.00, 10.00, 6.00, and 20.00, and the CT (trained) group: 15.00, 10.00, 14.00, 7.00, 21.00, and 21.00. The owner is aware of the known population mean for scooping proficiency, which is 20. The hypothesis is that employees who did not receive training (NT) will likely have lower scooping proficiency than the population mean. To investigate this hypothesis, the owner conducts a one-sample t-test with a significance level (alpha) set at 0.05. The objective is to determine if the mean scooping proficiency of the NT group is significantly different from the established population…arrow_forwardAn owner of an ice cream shop wants to investigate whether a new training program affects the scooping skills of ice cream shop employees.
