Question
A researcher selects a sample from a population with µ = 30 and uses the sample to evaluate the effect of a treatment. After treatment, the sample has a mean of M = 32 and a variance of s2 = 6. If Cohen’s d is used to measure the size of the treatment effect, which of the following would have no effect on the value of Cohen’s d?
Group of answer choices
an increased sample size
an increased sample mean
an increase sample variance
Each of these of these aspects will influence the value of Cohen’s d.

The level of ozone normally found is 7.9 parts/million (ppm). A researcher believes that the current ozone level is at an excess level. The mean of 24 samples is 8.1 ppm with a variance of 0.25. Does the data support the claim at the 0.1 level? Assume the population distribution is approximately normal.
