Question
Is the average time to complete an obstacle course different when a patch is placed over the right eye than when a patch is placed over the left eye? Thirteen randomly selected volunteers first completed an obstacle course with a patch over one eye and then completed an equally difficult obstacle course with a patch over the other eye. The completion times are shown below. "Left" means the patch was placed over the left eye and "Right" means the patch was placed over the right eye.
Right | 48 | 48 | 50 | 50 | 44 | 43 | 49 | 45 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Left | 49 | 50 | 53 | 51 | 46 | 48 | 48 | 45 |
Assume a
- The p-value is αα
- Based on this, we should the null hypothesis.
- Thus, the final conclusion is that ...
- The results are statistically insignificant at αα = 0.01, so there is statistically significant evidence to conclude that the population mean time to complete the obstacle course with a patch over the right eye is equal to the population mean time to complete the obstacle course with a patch over the left eye.
- The results are statistically significant at αα = 0.01, so there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the population mean time to complete the obstacle course with a patch over the right eye is not the same as the population mean time to complete the obstacle course with a patch over the left eye.
- The results are statistically insignificant at αα = 0.01, so there is insufficient evidence to conclude that the population mean time to complete the obstacle course with a patch over the right eye is not the same as the population mean time to complete the obstacle course with a patch over the left eye.
- The results are statistically significant at αα = 0.01, so there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the eight volunteers that were completed the course in the same amount of time on average with the patch over the right eye compared to the left eye.

- Researchers wanted to determine whether fence lizards learned to avoid fire ants. To determine this, they gathered lizards from eastern Arkansas (where there were no fire ants), and from southern Alabama (which had been invaded by fire ants). The lizards were then exposed to fire ants, and researchers measured how long (in seconds) it took the lizards to flee. What does each dot represent? Choose the best answer. Choice 1:A difference in time to flee for a single lizard from Alabama, and a single lizard from Arkansas, assuming the null hypothesis is true. Choice 2:A difference in mean response times for one sample of lizards from Alabama, and one sample of lizards from Arkansas, which was likely to occur if the null hypothesis is true. Choice 3:A difference in response times for two lizards in our sample. Choice 4:The proportion of all lizards who will free from fire ants.
