1. A population has a mean of 23. A sample of 4 is given an experimental procedure and has scores of 20, 22, 22, and 20. Test the hypothesis that the procedure produces a lower score. Use the .05 significance level. Use the steps of hypothesis testing.
t-test for Dependent Means (Chapter 7)
2. Five individuals are tested before and after an experimental procedure; their scores are given in the following table. Test the hypothesis that there is no change, using the .05 significance level. Use the steps of hypothesis testing.
t-test for Independent Means (Chapter 8)
3. Using the .05 significance level, figure a t test for independent means for an experiment in which scores in an experimental condition are predicted to be lower than scores in a control condition. For the experimental condition, with 26 participants, M = 5, S2 = 10; for the control condition, with 36 participants, M = 8, S2 = 12. Use the steps of hypothesis testing

A social psychologist studying mass communication randomly assigned 87 volunteers to one of two experimental groups. Fifty-seven were instructed to get their news for a month only from television, and 30 were instructed to get their news for a month only from the Internet. After the month was up, all participants were tested on their knowledge of several political issues. The researcher simply predicted that there is some kind of difference. These were the results of the study. TV group:...
1. We reject the null hypothesis only when: a. our sample mean is larger than the population mean. b. the p value associated with our test statistic is greater than the significance level of the test we have chosen. c. our sample mean is smaller than the population mean. d. the p value associated with our test statistic is smaller than the significance level of the test we have chosen. 2. In a study of simulated juror decision making, researchers...
For each of the following studies, the samples were given an experimental treatment and the researchers compared their results to the general population (all populations are normally distributed). For each, carry out a Z test using the 5 steps of hypothesis testing for a two-tailed test. Figure the 95% confidence intervals for each study. Be sure your answers for each study include the: SDM, Cut-off Z, Sample Z, Conclusion, and 95% Confidence Interval. Study Population Sample size Sample mean Significance...
Of the 98 participants in a drug trial who were given a new experimental treatment for arthritis, 56 showed improvement. Of the 92 participants who were given a placebo, 49 showed improvement. Construct a two way table for this data and then use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that improvement is independent of weather the participant was given the drug or a placebo. I'm stuck!!! Thanks!!
2. Look at the Independent samples t-test table to get your t
calculated, df, and significance. Read the line that says “equal
variances assumed”. Remember that significance level will appear in
the Sig (2-tailed) column. Any value that is smaller than .05 will
be significant at the .05 level or higher. In a sentence describe
the results and report them in APA style, including r2
and evaluation (you will need to calculate r2 by
hand).
3. What type of error...
For the table below, fill in the missing sections for the Mean, Median, Mode, Range, and Standard Deviation on your own. Remember to round to two decimal places. Hint: Put it in SPSS to simplify the calculation of the standard deviation, using the “Means” test under the Analyze menu! Then complete the five questions and transfer your answers to the quiz in Canvas Condition 1 Scores Condition 2 Scores 1 5 1 7 2 6 3 5 2 5 2...
Of the 93 participants in a drug trial who were given a new experimental treatment for arthritis, 57 showed improvement. Of the 90 participants given a placebo, 48 showed improvement. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that improvement is independent of whether the participant was given the drug or placebo. Assuming independence between the two variables, find the expected frequency for each cell of the table. 1) Table of expected frequencies Improvement. No improvement Drug. ____________. ______________...
1) An educational psychologist studies the effect of frequent testing on retention of class material. In one section of an introductory course, students are given quizzes each week. A second section of the same course receives only two tests during the semester. At the end of the semester, both sections receive the same final exam, and the scores are summarized below. Frequent Quizzes n = 20 M = 73 SS = 722 Two Exams n = 20 M = 68...
The population mean of ages for all females on the Titanic (survivors and non-survivors) was 24 years. Is the sample data you were given for the female ages greater than the population ages? Use a .05 level of significance. Here is the data of sample ages :47, 29, 19, 22, 24, 9, 22, 16, 40, 45, 1, 50, 4 What test are you going to run?
