archers were interested in determining whether or not emotional images affect performance on a color discrimination task. Six participants completed the task twice: once with affective images and once with neutral images. Here are the reaction times in seconds for each condition:                                    Participant        Neutral  Affective

The director of student services at Oxnard College is interested in whether women are just as likely to attend orientation as men before they begin their coursework. A random sample of freshmen at Oxnard College were asked what their gender is and whether they attended orientation. The results of the survey are shown below: Data for Gender vs. Orientation Attendance Women Men Yes 440 410 No 238 239 What can be conduded at the a - 0.10 level of significance? For this study, we should use z-test for a population proportion a. The null and alternative hypotheses would be: Ho: Select an answer v Select an answer v Select an answer v (please enter a decimal and note that p1 and ul represent the proportion and mean women and and u2 represent proportion and mean for men.) H: Select an answer v Select an answer v Select an answer v (Please enter a decimal) b. The test statistic ? v (please show your answer to 3 decimal places.) c. The p-value = (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) d.…

Lecture(8.4): Researchers were interested in whether the number of books children carried differed between gender. It was hypothesized that girls would carry more books than boys.Twenty children were recruited and matched based on age and SES..Researchers then collected the number of the age of the appropiate books the children carried. A Summary of the result is given below: Girls       15      7         22         13      26         14       12         11          18      30 Boys      12      10        16         8        17          9       15         10         20        15 Test the hypotheses at (alpha=0.05) level of signifance

For this example should a correlated or independent sample t test be used? Delayed posttest achievement scores were compared withimmediate posttest scores for all participants.

Q2) Paired-Samples t Test A research project has been tracking the health and cognitive functions of the elderly population in Arizona. The table below shows the memory test scores from some elderly residents, tested first when they were 65 years old and again when they were 75 years old. The researcher wants to know if there is a significant decline in memory functions from age 65 to age 75 based on this sample. In other words, it is hypothesized that the memory score at age 75 is significantly lower than the memory score at age 65. So the null and alternative hypotheses should be directional. The alpha level was set at a = .05 for a one-tailed hypothesis test. Memory score Subject 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Age 65 62 95 55 90 98 73 73 71 82 66 Age 75 65 88 56 89 90 75 70 70 80 62

A researcher uses matched-subjects design to investigate whether single people with pets vary in their happiness level compared to singles without pets. A mood inventory survey is given to a group of 20- to 29-year-old non-pet owners and a similar age group of pet owners. The pet owners are matched one to one with the non-pet owners for income, number of close friendships, and general health. Is there a significant difference in the mood scores for non-pet owners versus pet owners. Test with a =.05 for two tails.
