A researcher observed a rat respond for a food reward by pressing one of the three levers in a cage. Pressing the lever to the right (R) produced no food reward. pressing the lever to the left (L) produced a single food pellet, and pressing the lever at the center (C) produced two food pellets. Because the center level produced the largest reward, the researcher hypothesized that the rat would press this lever most often. Each trial ended when the rat produced a level. The researcher recorded lever pressing for 30 trials.

- The article cited in Example 1.2 also gave the accompanyingstrength observations for cylinders:6.1 5.8 7.8 7.1 7.2 9.2 6.6 8.3 7.0 8.37.8 8.1 7.4 8.5 8.9 9.8 9.7 14.1 12.6 11.2a. Construct a comparative stem-and-leaf display(see the previous exercise) of the beam and cylinderdata, and then answer the questions in parts(b)–(d) of Exercise 10 for the observations oncylinders.b. In what ways are the two sides of the display similar?Are there any obvious differences between the beamobservations and the cylinder observations?c. Construct a dotplot of the cylinder data.arrow_forwardAn excerpt of the t table with 57 degrees of freedom is given below. Degreesof Freedom Area in Upper Tail 0.20 0.10 0.05 0.025 0.01 0.005 57 0.848 1.297 1.672 2.002 2.394 2.665 The t table gives the area in the upper tail of the curve, so only positive values of t are given. However, this curve is symmetric about 0 so the area in the upper tail is the same as the area in the lower tail for a given number of degrees of freedom. That is, for 57 degrees of freedom, the area in the lower tail, left of t = −1.190, will be the same as the area in the upper tail, right of t = 1.190. We will first determine a range of the p-value corresponding to the upper tail. The columns represent the area in the upper tail of the curve and the rows represent the degrees of freedom. The values within the table are values of t. Moving along the row for 57 degrees of freedom, note that the exact value of the test statistic, t = 1.190, is not in this row. However, it is directly between the values of…arrow_forwardThe article in the ASCE Journal of Energy Engineering (1999, Vol. 125, pp.59-75) describes a study of the thermal inertia properties of autoclaved aerated concrete used as a building material. Five samples of the material were tested in a structure, and the average interior temperatures (°C) reported were as follows: 23.01, 22.22, 22.04, 22.62, and 22.59. Test that the average interior temperature is equal to 22.5°C using alpha (a) = 0.05. This problem is a test on what population parameter? What is the null and alternative hypothesis? What are the Significance level and type of test? What standardized test statistic will be used? What is the standard test statistic? What is the Statistical Decision? What is the statistical decision in the statement form?arrow_forward
