Suppose the present success rate in the treatment of a particular psychiatric disorder for the relevant population is known to be .73 (73%). A research group hopes to demonstrate that the success rate of a new treatment will be better than this standard. Use the letter p to represent the success rate of the new treatment. Write null and alternative hypotheses for p.

- Is this correct so far?arrow_forwardPregnant women are screened for a birth defect called Down syndrome. Down syndrome babies are mentally and physically challenged. Some mothers choose to abort the fetus when they are certain that their baby will be born with the syndrome. The most common screening is maternal serum screening, a blood test that looks for markers in the blood to indicate whether the birth defect may occur. The false-positive and false-negative rates vary according to the age of the mother.

That is, determine for what values of x the null hypothesis would be rejected. ala After training intensively for six months, John hopes that his mean time to run 100 meters has decreased from last year's mean time of 11.8 seconds. He performs a hypothesis test to determine whether his mean time has decreased. Preliminary data analyses indicate that it is reasonable to apply a z-test.
