Exercise is known to produce positive psychological effects. Interestingly, not all exercise is equally effective. It turns out that exercising in a natural environment (e.g., jogging in the woods) produces better psychological outcomes than exercising in urban environments or in homes (Mackay & Neill, 2010). Suppose that a sports psychologist is interested in testing whether there is a difference between exercise in nature and exercise in the lab with respect to post-exercise anxiety levels. The researcher recruits n 5 7 participants who exercise in the lab and exercise on a nature trail. The data below represent the anxiety scores that were measured after each exercise session. Treat the data as if the scores are from an independent-measures study using two separate samples, each with n 5 7 participants. Compute the pooled variance, the estimated standard error for the mean difference, and the independent-measures t statistic. Using a 5 .05, is there a significant difference…
Answer true or false to each of the following statements and explain your answers. a. In a two-way ANOVA, if there is an interaction between Factor A and Factor B, then there must be a main effect due to at least one of the factors.b. In a two-way ANOVA, if there is no Factor A main effect and no Factor B main effect, then there can be no interaction effect between Factor A and Factor B.
Researchers investigate how the presence of cell phones influence the quality of human interaction. Subjects are randomly selected from a population and divided into an experimental group that is asked to leave their phones in the front of the room and a control group that are not asked to leave their cell phones at the front of the room. Subjects are left alone for 10 minutes and then asked to take a survey designed to measure quality of interactions they had with others in the experiment. What statistical test is appropriate?
A school psychologist is interested in whether a particular remedial math training program helps improve students’ math skills. He randomly assigns 18 students to one of two groups: remedial training or no intervention. At the end of the training program, he administers a 100 point math test to all students, and counts the number of errors made by students in each group. These data (number of errors per student) are shown below. NO INTERVENTION REMEDIAL TRAINING 18 12 6 17 8 13 13 15 12 19 6 22 10 19…
Health researchers wish to compare the efficacy of the Moderna vs. Pfizer Vaccine. Here are 4 possible reasons that it would not make sense to run a matched pair experiment for such a study. Pick the TWO that are correct. 1: You would not be able to find twins willing to be part of such an experiment 2: You could not get two large independent samples for the purposes of comparison. 3: It would be hard to match two people for this test, since researchers do not yet understand what individual factors contribute to the variation of immunity to this disease. 4: It would make no sense to test both vaccines on one person and compare the outcomes. The two that are correct are: Oa. 1 and 4 The two that are correct are: 1 and 3 Ob. The two that are correct are: O c. 1 and 4 The two that are correct are: O d. 2 and 3 The two that are correct are: 3 and 4 O e.
Answer true or false to the following statements and explain your answers.a. If the blocking factor in a randomized block design is a random effect factor, the F-test for the effect of the treatment factor is still valid when there is interaction between the treatment and blocking factors.b. The F-test for the effect of the blocking factor in a randomized block ANOVA is still valid when there is interaction between the treatment and blocking factors.c. The presence of interaction between the treatment factor and blocking factor in a randomized block design is easy to assess from interaction plots.
Determine whether the results appear to have statistical significance, and also determine whether the results appear to have practical significance. In a study of a birth sex selection method used to increase the likelihood of a baby being born female, 1916 users of the method gave birth to 941 males and 975 females. There is about a 23% chance of getting that many babies born female if the method had no effect. Because there is a 23% chance of getting that many babies born female if the method had no effect, the method couples would likely use a procedure that raises the likelihood of a baby born female from the approximately 50% rate expected by chance to the % produced by this method. (Round to the nearest integer as needed.) So, this method has statistical significance. does not have practical significance. should be used to make conclusions. has practical significance.
The effect of the time of day a psychology class is taught on test scores is being studied in an experiment. Student ability has been identified as an extraneous factor that could also affect test scores. How can student ability best be addressed to minimize its effect in the experiment? O A. Direct control of what textbook is used B. Randomization of students in morning and afternoon classes O C. Replication of the experiment at different times of the year D. Blocking into groups based on the teacher of the class
A clinical psychologist is interested in determining which type of therapy is in fact more effective at treating depression. The psychologist randomly assigns 1/3rd of the participants to receive cognitive behavioral therapy, 1/3rd to receive the psychodynamic therapy and 1/3rd to receive humanistic therapy. Following the therapy sessions, the psychologist gives the members of each group the Beck Depression Inventory and compares the scores of the three groups. 1 What hypothesis test would be most appropriate for answering this research question and why? 2 If the researcher found that at least one of groups differed, what type of follow-up test would be most appropriate? 3 What are the independent and dependent variables (if any)?
Determine whether the results appear to have statistical significance, and also determine whether the results appear to have practical significance. In a study of a birth sex selection method used to increase the likelihood of a baby being born female, 2031 users of the method gave birth to 995 males and 1036 females. There is about a 19% chance of getting that many babies born female if the method had no effect. Because there is a 19% chance of getting that many babies born female the method had no effect, the method couples would likely use a procedure that raises the likelihood of a baby born female from the approximately 50% rate expected by chance to the % produced by this method. (Round to the nearest integer as needed.) So, this method
