Is there a statistically significant difference between males and females in terms of newspaper readership? The proportion of each sex that says they read a newspaper daily is reported below. Results are from a nationally representative random sample.Use α = .01 and the five-step model to conduct the hypothesis test. Write a sentence or two interpreting your results.
Males
Ps1 = .56 N1 =786
Females
Ps2 = .59 N2 =965
A random sample of students attending a large university has been selected. Is there a statistically significant difference between Liberal Arts majors and other students in the mean number of books (other than those required by course work) read per year? Use α = .05 and the five-step model to conduct the hypothesis test. Write a sentence or two interpreting your results.
Liberal Arts
X1 = 16.2 s1 =2.3 N1 =236
Other Students
X2 = 13.7 s2 =9.0 N2 =321
A researcher has observed 500 vehicles at a stop sign in a suburban neighbourhood and recorded the type of vehicle (sedan, hatchback, bakkie) and driver behaviour at the stop sign (complete stop, near stop, “ran” the stop sign). At the 0.05 level of significance, could there be some relationship between driver behaviour and the type of vehicle being driven? Define the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis.
A. H1: Driver’s behaviour and type of vehicle are independent vs H0: A relationship exists between driver’s behaviour and type of vehicle
B. H0: A relationship exists between driver’s behaviour and type of vehicle vs H1: No relationship exists between driver’s behaviour and type of vehicle
C. H0: Driver’s behaviour and dependent on the type of vehicle vs H1: Driver’s behaviour and type of vehicle are independent
D. H0: Driver’s behaviour and type of vehicle are independent vs H1: A relationship exists between driver’s behaviour and type of vehicle

- In a statistical test, we have a choice of a left-tailed test, a right-tailed test, or a two-tailed test. Is it the null hypothesis or the alternate hypothesis that determines which type of test is used? Select the correct answer: The alternative hypothesis because it specifies what the level of significance of the test will be. The alternative hypothesis because it specifies the region of interest for the parameter in question. The null hypothesis because it specifies the region of interest for the parameter in question. The null hypothesis because it specifies what the level of significance of the test will be.arrow_forwardAn educational psychologist studies the effect of frequent testing on retention of class material. In one of the professor's sections, students are given quizzes each week. The second section receives only two tests during the semester. At the end of the semester, both sections receive the same final exam, and the scores are summarized below. Do the data indicate that testing frequency has a significant effect on performance? Use a two-tailed test with α = .01. Include the null hypothesis in symbols, critical region(s), and a conclusion about significance. Compute r2 and state the size of the effect (e.g. small, medium, large).
