given the hypotheses H0 :S=S0, HA :S̸=S0, which are tested with a test statistic Y . When H0 is true, the test statistic Y ∼ U nif (0, 1), and your observed value is Y = 0.88. Calculate the two-sided p-value.

You are a consumer psychologist interested in holidy spending. A national census reports that the American family spent an average of μ = $81 for Halloween candy and costumes last year. A sample of N = 16 families this year produced a mean of $85 with s = 20  A) State your non-directional null and alternative hypothesis

If you look at the differences between the means, once with 10 participants and one mean with 20 participants. (same data set) One mean difference is very large, but non-significant and the other is very small, but came out significant. What could be the reason for this outcome? (My difference in means was with 10 participants: -1.1 and with 20 participants: -5.1)

Justin wants to know whether a commonly prescribed drug does improve the attention span of students with attention deficit disorder (ADD). He knows that the mean attention span for students with ADD who are not taking the drug is 2.3 minutes long. His sample of 12 students taking the drug yielded a mean of 4.6 minutes. Justin can find no information regarding σx , so he calculated s2x =1.96. a. Identify the independent and dependent variables.  b. In a sentence, state the null hypothesis being tested.  c. Using symbols, state the null and alternative hypotheses.  d. Determine the critical region using a one-tailed test with alpha = .05. e .Conduct the hypothesis test (Do the math and compare the t-critical and t-obtained values). f. State your conclusions in terms of H0 (Should you reject the H0 or fail to reject/accept the H0). g. Based on your analysis, is there a relationship between the drug and attention span?
