A study on the effects of color on easing test anxiety compared anxiety test scores of participants who completed a test printed on either soft yellow paper or harsh green paper. The scores for the 10 participants who completed the yellow and the 10 participants who completed it on the green paper are below (Table 5). Using an alpha level of .05, do participants who use the yellow paper report lower test anxiety than those who wrote it on the harsh green paper?
Table 5. Anxiety scores
For a sample of 400 correctional officers at Lucasville State Prison, a researcher believes there is a relationship between “years on the job” and “willingness to help raise money for adult charities.” Using the following data, test the null hypothesis at the .01 level of significance that willingness to help raise donations does not differ by length of service as a correctional officer. In so doing, identify: (1) the research and null hypothesis, (2) the critical value needed to reject the null, (3) the decision that you made upon analyzing the data, and (4) the conclusion you have drawn based on the decision you have made.
Recent incidents of food contamination have caused great concern among consumers. The article “How Safe Is That Chicken?” (Consumer Reports, Jan. 2010: 19–23) reported that 35 of 80 randomly selected Perdue brand broilers tested positively for either campylobacter or salmonella (or both), the leading bacterial causes of food-borne disease, whereas 66 of 80 Tyson brand broilers tested positive.
If the true proportions of non-contaminated chickens for the Perdue and Tyson brands are .50 and .25, respectively, how likely is it that the null hypothesis of equal proportions will be rejected when a .01 significance level is used and the sample sizes are both 80?

- 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?arrow_forwardA nutritionist compared the effectiveness of an online diet program to that of an inperson diet program. After three months, she compared the number of pounds of weight lost. The control group (in-person) lost a mean of 18.00 pounds (s = 14.50, n = 16) and the experimental group (online) lost 16.00 pounds (s = 13.30, n = 21). Use an alpha of .05, a two-tailed test, s2pooled = 191.19, and sM1−M2 = 4.5 to determine if there is a difference between the two programs.arrow_forwardAnswer true or false to the following statements and explain your answers.a. If the blocking factor in a randomized block design is a random effect factor, the F-test for the effect of the treatment factor is still valid when there is interaction between the treatment and blocking factors.b.

The presence of interaction between the treatment factor and blocking factor in a randomized block design is easy to assess from interaction plots.arrow_forward
- A consumer advocacy group wanted to study whether different airline carriers differed in terms of their delayed flights. In particular, the researchers were interested in the relationship between p1, the proportion of Alpha Airlines flights that were delayed at least 15 minutes, and p2, the proportion of Beta Airlines flights that were delayed at least 15 minutes. A random sample of 1,000 Alpha flights and a separate random sample of 1,000 Beta flights found that 67 of the Alpha fights and 160 of the Beta flights were delayed at least 15 minutes. The conditions for inference were checked and verified. Does this set of samples provide strong evidence that Alpha Airlines has a smaller proportion of flights that are delayed at least 15 minutes than Beta Airlines, at the α = 0.05 significance level? Find the z-table here. A. The test statistic is z = –6.56 and the P-value ≈ 0.

(A-26) examined rates of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in mothers and fathers. Parents were interviewed 5 to 6 weeks after an accident or a new diagnosis of cancer or diabetes mellitus type I for their child. Twenty-eight of the 175 fathers interviewed and 43 of the 180 mothers interviewed met the criteria for current PTSD. Is there sufficient evidence for us to conclude that fathers are less likely to develop PTSD than mothers when a child is traumatized by an accident, cancer diagnosis, or diabetes diagnosis?

In some cases, a wire mesh tube, called a stent, is placed in the vessel to help it remain open. The article “Long-term Outcomes of Patients Receiving Drug-eluting Stents” (A. Philpott, D. Southern, et al., Canadian Medical Association Journal, 2009:167–174) presents the results of a study comparing the effectiveness of a bare metal stent with one that that has been coated with a drug designed to prevent reblocking of the vessel. A total of 5320 patients received bare metal stents, and of these, 841 needed treatment for reblocking within a year. A total of 1120 received drug coated stents, and 134 of them required treatment within a year. a) Find a 98% confidence interval for the differences between the proportions for drug coated stents and bare metal stents. b) Suppose that additional patients are to be treated in order to increase the precision of the confidence interval.

- Does posting calorie content for menu items affectpeople’s choices in fast-food restaurants? According to results obtained by Elbel, Gyamfi, and Kersh(2011), the answer is no. The researchers monitoredthe calorie content of food purchases for children andadolescents in four large fast-food chains before andafter mandatory labeling began in New York City. Although most of the adolescents reported noticing thecalorie labels, apparently the labels had no effect ontheir choices. Data similar to the results obtained showan average of M = 786 calories per meal with s =85 for n =100 children and adolescents before thelabeling, compared to an average of M = 772 calorieswith s = 91 for a similar sample of n = 100 after themandatory posting.a.

- Tardigrades, or water bears, are a type of micro-animal famous for their resilience. In examining the effects of radiation on organisms, an expert claimed that the amount of gamma radiation needed to sterilize a colony of tardigrades no longer has a mean of 900 Gy (grays). (For comparison, humans cannot withstand more than 10 Gy .) A study was conducted on a sample of 27 randomly selected tardigrade colonies, finding that the amount of gamma radiation needed to sterilize a colony had a sample mean of 907 Gy , with a sample standard deviation of 17 Gy . Assume that the population of amounts of gamma radiation needed to sterilize a colony of tardigrades is approximately normally distributed. Complete the parts below to perform a hypothesis test to see if there is enough evidence, at the 0.05 level of significance, to support the claim that μ , the mean amount of gamma radiation needed to sterilize a colony of tardigrades, is not equal to 900…arrow_forwardTardigrades, or water bears, are a type of micro-animal famous for their resilience.

Each group was given a specific level of dosage of the drug each day for one month, with a control group that only provided with placebo. The reduction in LDL was recorded and showed in the following table. Positive number indicates reduction and negative numbers indicates increasing in DLD.
