Chapter 8.5, Problem 2LC

A researcher selects a sample from a population with µ. = 45 and σ = 8. A treatment is administered to the sample and. after treatment, the sample mean is found to be M = 47. Compute Cohen’s d to measure the size of the treatment effect.

Two samples of sizes 60 and 90 have 52 and 48 as the respective A.Ms. and 9 and 12 as the respective S.Ds. Find the A.M and S.D. of the combined sample of size 150.
A treatment is administered to a sample selected from a population with a mean of u = 34 and a standard deviation of o = 8. After treatment, the effect size is measured by computing Cohen’s d, and a value of d = 0.00 is obtained. Based on this information, what is the mean for the treated sample?
A sample of n = 16 scores produces a t statistic of t = 2.00. If the sample is used to measure effect size with r2, what value will be obtained for r2?​
