- When people learn a new task, their performance usually improves when they are tested the next day, but only if they get 6 hours sleep (Sticckgold, et al., 2000). The following data demonstrate this phenomenon. The participants learned a visual discrimination task on one day. Half of the participants were allowed to have at least 6 hours of sleep and the other half were kept awake all night. 6 hours sleep No sleep n =14 n = 14 M = 72 M =65 SS = 932 SS = 706 Will the 6-hour sleep show a much higher performance rate?

- Which of the following statements about Type 1 and Type 2 error is false? They are both a form of chance error. They are both represented using Greek letters. They are both a form of systematic error. Ideally you should try to keep both as low as possible in your study.arrow_forwardSLICE NAME Confidence Intervals and Hypothesis Testing TOPIC NAME Hypothesis test for the difference of population means: Z testarrow_forwardA new memory pill actually does not work at all. However, a researcher gives it to a sample, and by pure chance, he happens to have gotten a sample of people with above average memory. So, he wrongly concludes that it was the pill that was responsible for their good memory, and he concludes that the pill works. What has happened? The researcher has made a type II error Need more information to answer The researcher has made the correct decision The researcher has made a type I errorarrow_forward
- Which of the following statements below is incorrect about Type II error? The larger the effect size, the smaller the power of the test will be. For a given probability of type I error, the probability of type II error can be reduced by increasing the sample size. The power of a test is equal to 1-3, where represents the probability that a hypothesis test does not reject a false null hypothesis. The effect size measures the distance between the true population proportion and the value assumed for it in the null hypothesis.arrow_forwardBUS-173 (Applied Statistics)arrow_forwardWhich of the following conclusion would represent a Type II error?
