1. Whether or not a finding will be significant is generally influenced by
a) The size of the sample and the size of the population
b) The range of the results and the height of the distribution
c) The size of the sample and the strength of the effect
d) The strength of the effect and the height of the distribution
We know that,
Significance is determined by using p-value and which depend on sample size(n) and strength of effect.
Hence,
The required answer is,
c) The size of the sample and the strength of the effect.
Thank you.

Rejecting the null hypothesis can tell a researcher that a finding is statistically significant (for example, say there is a significant difference between students in our class and students in general) -- but this doesn’t tell us how extreme the difference really is (just that there is one). What statistical metric tells us how extreme a result is? (Or, in other words, the extent to which two population distributions do not overlap)? A. Effect size / Cohen’s D B. The...
What is your final task after finding a significant result? Why is effect size useful at this stage?
1)The range is a) the difference between the inner fences. b) the H-spread. c) not influenced very much by outliers. d) the difference between the highest and lowest score. e) an obscure, large appliance in the kitchen useful only for storage 2)If the whiskers on a boxplot are much longer on the right than on the left, we would suspect that the distribution is a) positively skewed. b) negatively skewed. c) symmetric. d) distorted. 3)Data points that lie outside the...
A sampling distribution for i would be obtained by finding ... O a. the means of lots of samples of the same size from the same population O b. the means of lots of samples of the same size from different populations O c. the means of lots of samples of varying sizes from the same population d. the mean of a single sample
What is the purpose of a goodness-of-fit test? a) To assess whether there is a significant difference between a collection of categorical data b) To find relationships in the data c) To assess whether several categorical variables are related d) To assesses whether the central tendency, variability and distribution of sample is different from that of the population Suppose you are testing the following hypothesis pair: Ho: H 100 vs. H:H > 100. A sample average of less than 100...

Suppose that a random sample of size 1 is to be taken from a finite population of size N. Answer parts (a) through (c) below. a. How many possible samples are there? A. N + 1 B. N-1 0 C. N D. 1 b. Identify the relationship between the possible sample means and the possible observations of the variable under consideration. Choose the correct answer below. A. Each possible sample mean is equal to an observation, only if the population...
20 is obtained from a 18 Asimple random sample of size n ulation with -64 and ơ 17. (a) What must be true regarding the distribution of the population in order to use the normal model to compute probabilities involving the sample mean? Assuming that this condition is true, describe the sampling distribution of J. (b) Assuming that the requirements described in part (a) are satisfied, determine P(<67.3). (c) Assuming that the requirements described in part (a) are satisfied, determine...
A repeated-measures study with a sample of n 16 participants produces a mean difference of Mp 4 with a standard deviation of s = 8, Use a two-tailed hypothesis test with a-.05 to determine whether it is likely that this sample came from a population with μο-0. Degrees of Freedom 21 5000 5000 0.0 0.000 3.0 -2.0 1.0 2.0 3.0 AN t-criticalt The results indicate: O Rejection of the null hypothesis; there is a significant mean difference O Failure to...
1. Fill in the blank. In a one-sample t-test, we use the _________ to estimate the population standard deviation in order to calculate the standard error. How do you find the degrees of freedom (df) for a one-sample t-test? a. N b. Calculate the standard deviation of the sample c. n-2 d. n-1 Which of the following influences the likelihood of obtaining significant results? a. The larger your estimated standard error, the more likely it will be to get...
