- In a company that was founded on fairness, the human resources manager was asked to perform a study to determine if the females were paid less than the males. If the study indicated that there was a significant difference, then the women would all be given a 5% raise. To perform the study, female and male workers were paired based on years of experience working for the company to determine if there was a difference in the salaries. Their annual salary was then compared. The data is shown below.
Males 18 43 32 27 15 45 21 22
Females 16 38 35 29 15 46 25 28
a) Use a Mann-Whitney U rank test to determine
if there is a difference in the salaries.

females should be given a raise.

Case study#1: The Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney Test Q. Soil respiration is a measure of microbial activity in soil, which affects plant growth. In one study, soil cores were taken from two locations in a forest: (1) under an opening in the forest canopy (the ‘gap’ location) and (2) at a nearby area under the heavy tree growth (the ‘growth’ location). The amount of carbon-di-oxide given off by each soil core was measured (in mol CO2/g soil/hr). Table below contains the data Soil...

Does the amount of hazardous material absorbed by the bodies of hazardous waste workers depend on gender? You want to test the hypotheses that the amount absorbed by men (group 1) is different from the amount absorbed by women (group 2). A random sample of 167 male workers and 188 female workers showed an average lead absorption in the blood of 9.7 (SD = 0.975) and 9.62 (SD = 0.724), respectively (measured in micrograms/deciliter). Assuming that the population standard deviations...
