A new program designed to improve high school student reading comprehension has been launched in a major school district. Students can choose how many hours they spend participating in the program, as an alternative to some other elective courses. A researcher is interested in a possible linear relationship between the number of hours a student spends taking part in the program (X) and standardized reading test scores (Y). 100 students were...

A local school district recently implemented an experimental program to improve mathematical skills for a specific high risk population. They selected 15 students to be in the initial study. After 1 year, the students in the program took a national mathematic achievement test. Students in this high risk population score an average of 35 with a standard deviation of 6. The goal of the program is for students to increase performance. Assume the data is approximately normally distributed. The scores...

2. A researcher believes that special early training will improve IQ. She identifies 7 pairs of identical twins and, when the infants are 3 years old, she randomly assigns one twin in each pair to special training. The other twin receives no special training. Each twin is tested on IQ at age 4. Test whether the two groups differ. The data are given below: Pair number: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Training 114 110 111 120 112 ...

Algebra students in a local high school use a computer-based program to brush up on algebra skills to be assessed by a test. The program claims that 80% of students using the program will pass the test. After an early pilot of the new program, only 34 of 50 student passed the test A 1-proportion z test is going to be conducted to see if there's evidence that the true passing rate is less than what was claimed. The null...

An elementary school started a special reading enrichment program for seventh-graders that has been underway for six months. One of the investigators is uncertain if the program is having its intended effect, and collects a sample of 35 students from the program with a standardized reading test average of 29.5. The standardized reading test average for seventh-graders in the country is 26.8 with a variance of 21.16. What can the investigator conclude with α = 0.05? a) What is the...

A school psychologist interested in the effect of a program designed to help with adjustment problems in newly transferred students knew from her years of working at the school that the average score on a scale of adjustment difficulties for transfer students was 58 with a standard deviation of 10. After starting the program, the psychologist tested 50 students and found their mean to be 52. Using the .05 level of significance, was this difference significant? (two-tailed test) 1. Determine...

According to the CDC 2.8% of high school students currently use electronic cigarettes. A high school counselor is concerned that the use of e-cigs at her school is higher. A test of the following hypothesis Ho: p = 0.028 Ha: p > 0.028 is conducted using a random sample of 50 students at this school and the null hypothesis is rejected. What conclusion can the counselor make? A. There is not enough evidence that the percent of students using e-cigs...

A random sample of 100 students at a high school was asked whether they would ask their father or mother for help with a financial problem. A second sample of 100 different students was asked the same question regarding a dating problem. If 43 students in the first sample and 47 students in the second sample replied that they turned to their mother rather than their father for help, test the hypothesis of no difference in the proportions. Use α...

A study was designed to compare the attitudes of two groups of nursing students towards computers. Group 1 had previously taken a statistical methods course that involved significant computer interaction. Group 2 had taken a statistic methods course that did not use computers. The students' attitudes were measured by administering the Computer Anxiety Rating Scale (CARS). A random sample of 16 nursing students from Group 1 resulted in a mean score of 41.3 with a standard deviation of 2.5. A...
