H1: This is a homework question. I chose a Null Hypothesis that is equal to the Alternative because the professor is comparing the two formats. Is my reasoning correct? Would this be a directional question?
A statistics professor is interested in finding out whether students perform better on exams if they are conducted in the classroom or online. He compares the final exam scores of his online statistics class with the exam scores of his in-person class. What is the null hypothesis for this scenario?
Null Hypothesis: final exam scores in class = final exam scores online
Alternative Hypothesis: final exam scores in class is NOT Equal to final exam scores online

- You are a research assistant at a zoo. The question of your study is "Has the proportion of baby zebras born in zoos has changed from 10%?". Your supervisor asks that you run a hypothesis test using an significance level of 0.05. Form the study you obtain a z-score of 0.788. Do you reject the null hypothesis and why?arrow_forwardCan you please help me answer the following as I got this incorrect on my assignment: Question: Relate to this specific scenario: What is the null hypothesis? What is the alternate / research hypothesis? Which one do you statistically assess? My answer that was marked incorrect: The null hypothesis states that there is no difference or correlation between a person's heart rate and exam score. The alternative: A person's heart rate and predicted test score are related. An inferential statistical test is performed on the null hypothesis. Professor feedback to change and resubmit: not either of these words is most appropriate - scenario states prediction To measure whether test performance can be predicted based on one’s anxiety, a researcher asked his students to come to the lab 15 minutes before they were to take an exam in his class. The researcher measured the students' heart rates and then matched these scores with their exam performance after they had taken the exam.

- A local teacher wants to see if teaching writing in different ways impacts student learning. She has two classes of similar characteristics. In one class, she will use Teaching Strategy A and in the other class she will use Teaching Strategy B. She ran her analysis in Microsoft Excel and received the following output table. If the P value is less than 0.05, the null hypothesis may be rejected. Based on the data table, what decision should the teacher make about the hypothesis?arrow_forwardSuppose a friend of yours was interested in comparing the meanreading scores of four ethnic groups in her classroom but has no idea what statistical procedure to use. So, she comes to you for advice since she knows you recently completed a statistics course. Your friend tells you that each group has 8 students. Given this information: (1) State the null and alternative hypotheses for this study (2) What is the dependent and independent variable for this study (3) What test statistic/hypothesis test would you select to determine if the means are significantly difference at the alpha .05 level?arrow_forwardThis is the step1, so step 2 and step 3 and Step 4 must be answered. (Step 2: Test Statistic -Pearson's r correlation coefficient AND Step 3: Critical Values, and Step 4: Solve For the test stat) so based it from the photo. The table shows the number of hours spend by 30 students in studing and their test scores. Solve for the Pearson’s r and interpret the results. Use 5% significance level. Step 1: Null and Alternative Hypothesis Ho: r = 0; There is no significant relationship between the number of hours spent studying and the students test scores. Ha: r ≠ 0; There is a significant relationship between the number of hours spent studying and the students test scores.

For his study, he selects a random sample of 36 adults. The subjects complete a series of working memory tests before and after walking in an urban setting. Before the walk, the mean score on the test of working memory was 9.1. After the walk, the mean score was 1.4 higher. The graduate student has no presupposed assumptions about how viewing different types of scenes affects working memory, so he formulates the null and alternative hypotheses as: H00 : μDD = 0 H11 : μDD ≠ 0 Assume that the data satisfy all of the required assumptions for a repeated-measures t test. The graduate student calculates the following statistics for his hypothesis test: Mean difference (MDD) 1.4 Estimated population standard deviation of the differences (s) 1.6 Estimated standard error of the mean differences (sMDMD) 0.2667 Degrees of freedom (df) 35 The t statistic 5.25 The critical values of t…arrow_forwardPsychology experiments sometimes involve testing the ability of rats to navigate a maze.
