Homework Answers
a) B
b) B. The pattern shows the roughly positive linear correlation
c) 
r = 0.82
d) A. It could be that higher test scores causes longer study times. This is a reasonable direction of causality, as higher test scores motivate students to study more.

(c) Figure the correlation coefficient. r= (Round to two decimal places as needed.) (d) Give three logically possible directions of causality, saying for each whether it is a reasonable direction in light of the variables involved. Select all that apply. A. It could be that higher test scores cause longer study times. This is not a reasonable direction of causality, as the tests would have been graded after study time. B. It could be that longer study times cause higher...

Prof. Gersch wishes to find a relationship between how many hours students study and how they do on a departmental test. He takes a random sample of 50 students, asks how many hours they studied for their test and how they did on the test, enters the data into a computer for analysis and finds the relation is given by the following regression equation: GRADE = 45.2 + 10.1*HOURS Based on the regression model, what grade would a student...

4. A survey asked a random sample of 363 first-year students how many hours they studied during a particular week. The mean was 15.3 hours. Suppose we know that the population standard deviation is 8.5 hours. Construct a 90%, 95% and 99% confidence interval for the mean study time of all first year students at this university. Interpret the 90% confidence interval.

1. Which of the following tests would you use to explore the relationship between two ordinal variables? a. Phi correlation b. Pearson’s product-moment correlation c. Spearman's rank-order correlation d. Point-biserial correlation 2. Thirty people took part in a study to see the extent to which musical ability is related to math proficiency.

Do students reduce study time in classes where they achieve a higher midterm score? In a Journal of Economic Education article (Winter 2005), Gregory Krohn and Catherine O'Connor studied student effort and performance in a class over a semester. In an intermediate macroeconomics course, they found that "students respond to higher midterm scores by reducing the number of hours they subsequently allocate to studying for the course." Suppose that a random sample of n = 8 students who performed well...

Dean Halverson recently read that full-time college students study 20 hours each week. She decides to do a study at her university to see if there is evidence that students study an average of less than 20 hours each week. A random sample of 32 students were asked to keep a diary of their activities over a period of several weeks. It was found that he average number of hours that the 32 students studied each week was 19.1 hours....

Two researchers conducted a study in which two groups of students were asked to answer 42 trivia questions from a board game. The students in group 1 were asked to spend 5 minutes thinking about what it would mean to be a professor, while the students in group 2 were asked to think about soccer hooligans. These pretest thoughts are a form of priming. The 200 students in group 1 had a mean score of 26.2 with a standard deviation...
